Thanks Paul. I had indeed omitted to set G in the State/Country field 
on the opening screen - possibly because I set it up at 5am, the 
program didn't prompt me to put it in, and it is not obvious just 
looking at it that anything was required there. And although I did 
put G when prompted in SDCheck it clearly is not carried through to 
the Cabrillo for some reason.

Anyway, I edited in the G in the Cabrillo manually (didn't take long 
with my 90 QSOs...), resubmitted, and it was accepted. Will try and 
remember for next year!
