[UK-CONTEST] EU HF Championship today.

[Paul O'Kane]

The European HF Championship takes place today, Saturday
2nd August from 10:00 - 21:59 UTC.

SD offers an exact match for this contest.  Further, it's
supported in the DEMO shareware version.  Anyone can use
SD V10.03 from http://www.ei5di.com - you don't have to be
registered.  You'll need an updated SDCHECK to give the
correct Cabrillo format log for this contest - get it from
http://www.ei5di.com/sd/sdcheck.zip (80970 bytes).

You now have a choice of SD/DOS or SD/WIN.  SD/WIN operates
in Console Mode (character-based) in any version of Windows.

Here's a summary of the rules.  Full rules are available at
http://lea.hamradio.si/~scc/euhfcrules.htm

This contest is for EU to EU QSOs only.  QSOs outside EU
don't count.

  They are all single-op, all band  160 - 10m
  There are NO multi-op or single band categories.
