The Worked All Germany (WAG) contest takes place from 
1500 UTC Saturday 21st October to 1459 UTC Sunday
22nd October.

It's a CW/mixed-mode event on the five contest bands from
80m to 10m.  SSB-only is not an option.

Rules at http://www.darc.de/referate/dx/xedcgr.htm

SD supports this event.  V13.09 runs on any Windows PC and
is free from www.ei5di.com/sd/sdsetup.exe

SD Setup.

UK entrants - select SD's "WAG, DX" template.

Work German stations only.
Receive 59(9) + DOK (area code)
Send    59(9) + Serial.

SD tracks the first letter in each DOK as a potential 
multiplier.  You can have a maximum of 26 multipliers per
band (A-Z).

SD logs, at most, 4 DOK characters.  Some stations will send
a longer code, but you will not lose points by recording 
only the first four characters - I have confirmed this with 
DL1DTL, the contest organiser.

After the contest, use SDCHECK to create your Cabrillo .LOG
file.  Email it, as an attached file, to wag at dxhf.darc.de
