SD V16.12 supports this event - www.ei5di.com.
Earlier versions are not recommended.

    Select the "REF, DX" template (DX entrants)
               "REF, France" template  (French entrants)

    and SSB as your mode.

French stations send their département number or
country prefix (Overseas Territories). All others
send a serial, and work "French" stations only -
with multipliers for départements and certain
country prefixes - as listed in SD's multiplier
window.

French stations include Mainland France, Corsica,
and French Overseas Territories.

There's no need to worry about which countries, apart
from France, you can work for points - SD displays
ineligible calls in red.

Use SDCHECK to prepare your Cabrillo log, and send
it to cdfssb at ref-union dot org.  Please mention
SD in your soapbox comments.
