The European HF Championship takes place on Saturday 7th August
from 12:00 - 23:59 UTC.  This contest is fun - it's fast and
furious, and is a single-op event with high and low-power
sections for CW, SSB and Mixed.

SD supports this contest, and is freeware from www.ei5di.com.

Here's the setup information - full rules are available at
http://lea.hamradio.si/~scc/euhfcrules-04.htm

_____________________________________________

SD setup.

Select Type 4 - General, Area Multipliers.

Multipliers Count:      B  (by band)
Points per CW QSO:      1
Points per SSB QSO:     1
Pts/Bonus:              0  (multipliers)

Mixed-Mode Contest?     Y or N  (your choice)

        on both modes?  Y
________________________________________________

Work Europeans only (there are no country multipliers) on all
6 bands from 160 to 10 metres. 

Exchange:
  RS(T) + 2 digit number representing the year you (the
  operator) personally received your first official amateur
  licence.  Do NOT give the year the call you are using was
  first issued, if different.
  
  Each different year received counts once as a multiplier
  on each band, regardless of mode.

Note that you are asked, if possible, to record the exact
operating frequency for each QSO.  If you use SD with rig
control enabled, this will be done automatically.

For single-mode entries, you're allowed a maximum of 10 band
changes per full clock hour (for example 12:00 to 12:59 UTC).
For mixed-mode, you can have a maximum of 10 band and/or mode
changes per full clock hour (for example, 3 mode changes and
7 band changes).

DX cluster or spotting nets are not permitted in any category.

After the contest, use SDCHECK to create your .LOG in Cabrillo
format.  Rename it to YOURCALL.LOG, where YOURCALL is the
callsign you used, and send it as an attached file to
euhfc at hamradio.si.
