Ron,

On my old USSR QSL cards, some of them call it Region or Reg
and some of them call it OBL (Oblast) ... the following
LINK webpage lists the OLD Oblast #'s and the NEW designator
that is used for the various District Award (such as RDA):

As to which column to use -- you can use the Notes column,
or you could use the Spec1 or Spec2 .. The choice is up to
the user..
