After the contest, use SDCHECK (Option 1) to create your
Cabrillo format .LOG file. Rename it to YOURCALL.LOG and
email it, as an attached file, to urdx@ham.kiev.ua within
30 days. For the Contest Name, specify UKRAINIAN DX 2004.
You can enter in a single-band category even if you have
QSOs on other bands - leave them in your Cabrillo log, but
specify the individual band, rather than ALL, when running
SDCHECK.
