Can somebody confirm that the key file for SD is not automated and therefore sent out instantly on receipt of payment?  I'm setting up for tonight's contest and registered the program a couple of hours ago.  I have the paypal confirmation but not the file.

Just checking in case its got trapped by a spam filter or whatever.

The RSGB 1.8 MHz contest runs from 1900 - 2259Z on Saturday
10th February. It is CW-only on 160m (1810-1850 kHz).

Rules at
http://www.rsgbcc.org/hf/rules/2017/r160m.shtml

SD V19.23 supports this event - www.ei5di.com

Select the "RSGB 1.8 MHz" option.
  UK entrants, enter your district code on the
    opening screen.
  Non-UK entrants - leave this field blank.

If you see any other RSGB 1.8 MHz options listed, your
version of SD is out-of-date.

Work everyone, exchange Serials.  UK entrants add their
2-character district code.  SD lets you enter serials
and district codes as a single field (no space needed),
and leading zeros are not required.

For example: 5LN, followed by Enter, is logged as 005 LN

UK stations should edit SD's exchange messages - F2, F4
F6 (using Shift-F2 etc) to include their district code.

Scoring is 2 points per QSO, with 5 bonus points for
the first QSO with each UK district and for the first
QSO with each non-UK country. Bonus QSOs are indicated
by highlighting the district code or the callsign, as
appropriate.

The Dutch PACC contest overlaps with this event. PA
contesters send their own 2-character district code
but no serial.  For these, enter zero for the serial
and ignore the district code. SD displays zero serials
as blank - but don't worry, they will be recorded as
zero in your Cabrillo .LOG  file.

Upload your Cabrillo log from SDCHECK at
http://www.rsgbcc.org/cgi-bin/hfenter.pl

Please mention SD in your soapbox comments.
