Dear scramblers on the List!

Could you tell me how many points the letter ? ("Ch") is worth in the Russian
Scrabble of the American variety (Nabokov's "Flavita")? I know that in the
Soviet version, commercially known as "Erudit," it is worth five points and
there are two Ch's in a set. Am I right in supposing that in a "Flavita" set
either there are three Ch's, or the letter Ch (a not very frequent one) is
worth more points?

Thank you in advance,
Alexey
