               Club stations of the sponsoring clubs will be ranked
               separately.

Exchange:      RST and LDK (LDK is the registration number for the
               county - "Landkreis" - or the autonomous city - "kreis-
               freie Stadt" - where the station is currently located.)
               Example: 579HOL for participants in the county of Holz-
               minden. Stations outside Germany send only RST.

Scoring:       1 point per QSO, 2 points per QSO with a club station

               DL0DA, DL0HSC, and DL0RTC). SWL log entries must show
               both call signs and at least one complete exchange for
               each QSO.

Final Score:   Total sum of QSO points
