The rules (http://sactest.net/blog/rules/cabrillo-3-0/) are very clear 
about what is required in the Cabrillo log:

It should be EITHER:
CATEGORY OVERLAY: ROOKIE
OR:
CATEGORY OVERLAY: TB-WIRES

Paste the appropriate one for the category you are entering into your 
Cabrillo. But as Paul says you must do this in Notepad (or one of the 
excellent alternatives), not Wordpad which will put extra control 
characters in. I use Notepad2.

As an aside, I am still using SD v14. It still works fine in all the 
contests I take part in.

>I have edited the .LOG file with Wordpad in the necessary format but

>Any suggestions how I can get this accepted?
