SD supports the YUDX Contest which takes place from 1200 UTC
Saturday 20th April to 1200 UTC Sunday 21st April

It's all bands 10 - 160 metres, on either or both SSB and CW.
Exchange is RST and ITU Zone, and multipliers are Zones and YU
prefixes.  You can log the same station on both modes on each
band, however multipliers count once per band regardless of mode.
Please see the full rules at http://yudx.no-ip.com/yudx/rulesw.htm

SD, Contest Type 3, includes an option which correctly scores QSOs
in the YUDX contest.  YU prefix multipliers are NOT recorded.
This does not matter as the contest organisers accept Cabrillo
logs in which QSOs are not scored, and multipliers and dupes are
not marked. In any case, you can use SDCHECK, after the contest,
to manually mark YU multipliers in your .ALL file to get an
accurate Claimed Score.  I've updated SDCHECK to give a Cabrillo
log for this contest.

Select SD Type 3 - IARU HF
IARU LZ YU         : Y (YU)
Next Page          : Y

If Mixed -
   Mults count on
   both modes      : N
   Work same stn
   on both modes   : Y

Exchange RST and ITU Zone, work everyone.  Use SDCHECK to create
your Cabrillo .LOG file, rename it to YOURCALL.LOG and send it, as
an attached file, to 2002@yudx.net
