The Russian Federation consists of 92 'oblasts', which are territorial divisions. Each 'oblast' has two-letter designator, which is equivalent to former USSR three-figure 'oblast' designator. A further unique feature of the Russian call sign allocation system is the ability to determine which oblast the call sign is located in.
This is accomplished by the number and the letter following the number. For example, in the call sign RA9AE, the '9A' designates a station from the Chelyabinskaya oblast; in the call sign RW3FO, the '3F' designates a station from Moskovskaya oblast; in the call sigh RK3AWL, the '3A' designates a station from Moscow City (considered a separate oblast); and so forth. Please see the Russian oblast prefix list for a complete geographical listing.
http://www.rossiya.net/crc_e/prr_pr_e.htm - europeThe most common call signs are the six alphanumeric call signs 2x3 (such as RA3APW);these call signs are used by class IV, III, II operators, roughly equivalent (in order) to US Technician, Technician Plus, and General or Advanced class licensees. 1st class operators may use 2x3 call sign too. Five alphanumeric call signs (2x2, as in RA3XO) are used by the class I (the highest level attainable) individual license class, equivalent to US Extra class licensees. Club stations use six alphanumeric character call signs with the second letter W-Z (2x3, such as RW6AWT or RK9CWW).

'Ordinary' special calls begin with prefix UE (such as the recent special Red Banner Pacific Fleet special event station call sign UE56MM, broadcast from a former Soviet (Navy submarine). Using UE's in contests is strictly forbidden.

Also special calls may have the following alphanumeric designators: 1x2 ("R" + figure + two letters), 1x3 (such as R1FJL, a special DXpedition call sign designating the location as Franz Josef Land) or 2x1 (such as RW2F, a special contest call of RK2FWA club station from Kaliningradskaya oblast).

The Russian Federation consists of 92 'oblasts', which are territorial divisions. Each 'oblast' has two-letter designator, which is equivalent to former USSR three-figure 'oblast' designator. A further unique feature of the Russian call sign allocation system is the ability to determine which oblast the call sign is located in.

This is accomplished by the number and the letter following the number. For example, in the call sign RA9AE, the '9A' designates a station from the Chelyabinskaya oblast; in the call sign RW3FO, the '3F' designates a station from Moskovskaya oblast; in the call sigh RK3AWL, the '3A' designates a station from Moscow City (considered a separate oblast); and so forth. Please see the Russian oblast prefix list for a complete geographical listing.

http://www.rossiya.net/crc_e/prr_pr_e.htm - europeThe most common call signs are the six alphanumeric call signs 2x3 (such as RA3APW);these call signs are used by class IV, III, II operators, roughly equivalent (in order) to US Technician, Technician Plus, and General or Advanced class licensees. 1st class operators may use 2x3 call sign too. Five alphanumeric call signs (2x2, as in RA3XO) are used by the class I (the highest level attainable) individual license class, equivalent to US Extra class licensees. Club stations use six alphanumeric character call signs with the second letter W-Z (2x3, such as RW6AWT or RK9CWW).

'Ordinary' special calls begin with prefix UE (such as the recent special Red Banner Pacific Fleet special event station call sign UE56MM, broadcast from a former Soviet (Navy submarine). Using UE's in contests is strictly forbidden.
Also special calls may have the following alphanumeric designators: 1x2 ("R" + figure + two letters), 1x3 (such as R1FJL, a special DXpedition call sign designating the location as Franz Josef Land) or 2x1 (such as RW2F, a special contest call of RK2FWA club station from Kaliningradskaya oblast).

The first one or two letters identify the country the station is licensed in.
The prefix letters used for stations in the United States are...
A (AA-AL), e.g., AC6V
K (KA-KZ), e.g., K6DX, KC6UQH
N (NA-NZ), e.g., N6KI
W (WA-WZ), e.g., W6AM

The number indicates the U.S. district of license. The U.S. is broken down into 10 regions (0-9). See Below.
(NOTE: US Amateurs may keep their calls when moving to another district -- so a W1 may in fact reside in California (W6)

The suffix (last one, two, or three letters) are unique.

Callsigns may reflect the license class, although many keep a lesser callsign when upgrading.
A 2-by-3 [two letters, a number, and three letters] callsign typically belongs to a Novice or Technician
operator, e.g., KC6UQH. Also some of the newer General operators have a 2-by-3 call.

A 1-by-3 callsign usually belongs to older Technician and General class operators. e.g., N6AEK. These callsigns were 'used up' in the sequential callsign system, so newer Tech and General operators are now receiving 2-by-3 calls.

A 2-by-2 call usually belongs to an Advanced or a newer Extra class operator. An Extra 2-by-2 usually starts with an 'A'. e.g., AC6HZ. An Advanced 2-by-2 usually starts with a 'K', 'N', or 'W'. e.g., KB5MU

A 1-by-2 or 2-by-1 call usually belongs to an older Extra class operator. e.g., N6ST, AC6V. When these sequential callsigns were 'used up', the Extra class operators started receiving 2-by-2 calls starting with the AA block.

A 1-by-1 callsign is very special. It is assigned to a special event station for a short period of time. They
are not assigned to individual operators as their regular callsign. e.g., W0W See URL: http://www.arrl.org/w1aw/1997-arlb048.html
