SD V15.60 supports SO CW/SSB, but not data modes.

   Swiss entrants - use the "Helvetia, HB9" template.
   Other entrants - use the "Helvetia, DX" template.

HB9s work everyone - others work HB9 only.  Exchange
serials.  HB9s add their 2-character canton code.

It's quicker to log the serial and canton as a single
field.  For example, 6ZH will be logged as 006 ZH.

Use SDCHECK to create your Cabrillo .LOG file, and send
it to contest at uska.ch. Please mention SD in your soapbox
comments.
