SD supports both sides of the Russian District Award (RDA)
Contest which takes place from 10:00 UTC to 21:59 UTC on
Saturday 21st August.

It's an all-band (6 bands from 160 to 10m) event with SSB, CW
and Mixed sections - full rules at
www.rdaward.org/rda_contest1.htm.

You'll need SD V11.00 - earlier versions will not work.
You can get this from www.ei5di.com.

Non-Russian stations work Russians only - SD displays the

not Russian.  You can work
  European Russia
  Asiatic Russia
  Kaliningrad (UA2)
  R1FJ and R1MV

Russian stations work everyone.

Non-Russians send 59(9) + Serial
    Multipliers are Russian Districts - they count once only.

SD's multiplier file RDA.MLT contains only a selection of the
possible district codes - however, it adds new ones as you
work them - up to a maximum of 200 in total.

Russians send 59(9) + 4-character district.
    Multipliers are Russian Districts and DXCC countries - 
    they count once only.

Use SDCHECK, after the contest, to create your Cabrillo format
log. Email it, as an attached file to rx3rz@tmb.ru
