The European HF Championship takes place on Saturday 4th August from
10:00 - 21:59 UTC.
SD offers an exact match for this contest. Further, it's supported in
the DEMO shareware version - no key file is required.
Here's a summary of the rules. Full rules are available at
http://lea.hamradio.si/~scc/rules.txt
EU to EU QSOs only,
Categories:
They are all single-op, all band 160 - 10m
There are no multi-op or single band categories.
CW/SSB, high (max 1500w) or low power (max 100w)
CW only, high or low power
SSB only, high or low power
Note that DX cluster or spotting nets are not permitted in any
category!
Exchange:
RS(T) + 2 digit number representing the year the operator
received his/her first official amateur licence. (Not the
year the call used was first issued, if different)
Each different year received counts once as a multiplier on each band,
regardless of mode.
1 point per QSO.
______________________________________________
Here's how to setup SD.
Select Type 4
Multiplier Count: B (by band)
Points per QSO: 1
Pts/Bonus: 0 (multipliers)
Name of .MLT file: EUHFC

Mode: SSB or CW
Mixed-Mode Contest? Y or N (your choice)
If Yes
Mults count both modes? N
Work same station
on both modes? Y
Work Europeans only (but no country multipliers)
________________________________________________
After the contest, use SDCHECK to create your .LOG and .SUM files.
Edit your .SUM file as necessary. Rename them to YOURCALL.LOG and
YOURCALL.SUM, where YOURCALL is the callsign you used, and attach them
to an email to euhfc@hamradio.si by 31st August. In previous years it
was recommended that you indicate your entry category in the subject
line of your email. For example, EI5DI EUHFC 2001 MIX LP. It's
probably best to retain this convention.
Note to Contest Organisers. If you want "Cabrillo" (ARRL Standard
File Format) logs, with Summary Sheet and QSO data in a single file,
you must publish the exact Summary Sheet data you require so that
contest logging authors can do the necessary coding. To request
Cabrillo logs and, at the same time, to refer to .LOG and .SUM files
indicates an incomplete understanding of the issues. There is no such
thing as a single Cabrillo standard.
