> You can get either one or several diplomas – it is up to you.
> For your convenience we have created special version of RDA dx-cluster where you can easily see those RDA-s that you don't have confirmed yet. You also have a possibility to have a sound notification when your un-confirmed RDA is spotted. Go and check it out: https://mydx.eu/?tab=spots
