The EU Sprint takes place from 16:00 to 19:59 UTC on
Saturday 6th October. It is SO SSB-only, on 80, 40 & 20m,
with HP and LP (100w) categories.
Rules at http://www.eu-sprint.com/index.php?page=140&lang=g
Note the QSY rule.
SD V16.03 supports the Sprint - www.ei5di.com
Select the "EU Sprint" template.
Enter the Mode as SSB, and your Name for the exchange.
EU entrants: Work everyone on 80, 40 & 20m.
DX entrants: Work EU only.
Exchange Serial & Name & both callsigns. There are no mults.
If you load a .LST callsign/name file with the LOAD command,
SD autofills the Name on a callsign match. If the name has
changed, overtype with the correct name.
When there is no match on callsign, it's faster to enter
the Serial and Name exchange as a single field - with no
spaces. For example: SD logs "2FRED" as "002 FRED".
The Sprint has a recommended format for exchanges. For
example, you must give both callsigns as part of each
exchange - however the position of your own callsign
lets listeners know whether you will QSY or stay on the
frequency after the QSO. It's better to know and use
the correct exchange format.
Use SDCHECK to create your Cabrillo .LOG file - send it
to eusprint[at]kkn[dot]net.
Please mention SD in your soapbox comments, as this
encourages others to try it.
73,
Paul EI5DI
