Log 59(9), Serial, 4-character Locator, and Departement.
Multipliers are departements and locators.

French stations will indicate their departement as, for
example, F5ABC/71.  You can log callsigns without the
departement suffix, but you must enter the departement
(in this case 71) in the District field to have it count
as a multiplier.

After the contest, use SDVCHECK to create your log and
cover sheet.  Rename them to YOURCALL.LOG and YOURCALL.COV
and email them, as attached files, to ddfm50 at ref-union-org.
