UK Entrants - select SD's "RSGB 1.8, UK" template.
All others - select SD's "RSGB 1.8, DX" template.
UK entrants work everyone. All others work UK only.
Exchange 5NN + Serial.
UK stations add their 2-character district code, and should
edit SD's F2 exchange message (using Shift-F2) to include it.
When logging other UK stations, you may type the serial and
district in a single field. For example: 26WA, followed
by Enter, is expanded to 026 WA in their respective fields.
SD pre-fills the district code when you load a callsign
reference file with district codes. For example -
GM3POI KW
G5LP NN
Use SDCHECK create your Cabrillo .LOG file.
Contest Name : RSGB-160

Rename the Cabrillo file to YOURCALL.LOG and email it, as an
attached file, to 1st160.logs at rsgbhfcc.org
Please mention SD in your soapbox comments.
