The Stew Perry Topband Distance Challenge takes place from
1500 GMT on Saturday 30th December to 1459 Sunday 31st December.
This is a CW-only event on 160m - with a limit of 14 hours
operation.
Rules at http://jzap.com/k7rat/stew.rules.txt
SD supports this event. V13.11B runs on any Windows PC and
is free from www.ei5di.com/sd/sd1311b.exe.
V13.11B is not the same version of SD as the one on general
release on the website. It fixes two bugs in V13.11 -
relating to the display of grid squares logged and the
format of Cabrillo QSO records.
Select SD's "Stew Perry Topband" template.
Work everybody. Exchange 4-character grid square only - no
serial, no 5NN. SD calculates the correct points for each
QSO based on distance.
If using SD's keyer, use Shift-F2 to update the exchange
with your grid square. If necessary, edit the SD_LCTR
record in your SD.INI file (before the start of the contest)
to reflect your own 6-character locator.
After the contest, use SDCHECK (Option 1) to prepare your
Cabrillo .LOG file. Email it, as an attached file, to
tbdc at contesting.com. NOTE: SD's Cabrillo QSO records
include RST Sent & Received - these are mandatory even
though they are not exchanged.
