This is a 4-hour event from 2100z Saturday 17th
November to 0059z on Sunday.  It is CW-only, and
everyone works everyone with the exception that
non-EU entrants work EU only.

Rules at www.rsgbcc.org/hf/rules/2012/r2nd-160m-2012.shtml

SD contest logger is free and unrestricted in this
event. You can get V16.06 from www.ei5di.com.

   Select the "RSGB 1.8 November" template.

If you have not registered, or have an out-of-date
key file, SD will start in DEMO mode. Don't worry,
it will be unrestricted while logging.

Exchange Serials. UK stations add their 2-character
district code, and should edit SD's F2 exchange
message (using Shift-F2) to include it.

2 points per QSO, and 5 bonus points for the first
QSO each UK district and for the first QSO with
each non-UK DXCC country.

When logging UK stations, it's easier to enter the
serial and district in a single field. For example:
26WA, followed by Enter, is expanded to 026 WA in
their respective fields.

SD pre-fills the district code when you load a
callsign reference file (.LST) with district codes.

For example,
GM3POI KW
G5LP NN

Use SDCHECK create your Cabrillo .LOG file, and upload
it at http://www.rsgbcc.org/cgi-bin/hfenter.pl

Please mention SD in your soapbox comments, as this
encourages others to try it.

73,
Paul EI5DI
