The RSGB 1.8 MHz Contest takes place for four hours,
starting at 2100 UTC on Saturday 20th November. It is
CW-only on 160m (1810 - 1870 kHz).

Rules at www.rsgbcc.org/hf/rules/2010/r18mhz.shtml

SD V15.23 supports this event - www.ei5di.com.

    UK Entrants - select the "RSGB 1.8, UK" template.
    All others  - select the "RSGB 1.8, DX" template.

UK entrants work everyone.  All others work UK only.
Exchange Serials.

UK stations add their 2-character district code - edit
SD's F2 exchange message (using Shift-F2) to include it.

When logging UK stations, enter 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 (.LST) with district codes.  For example -
GM3POI KW
G5LP NN

Use SDCHECK create your Cabrillo .LOG file.
