[UK-CONTEST] Russian District Award Contest

[Paul O'Kane]

The RDA Contest takes place from 14:00 UTC on Saturday
18th to 07:59 UTC on Sunday 19th August.  There are CW,
SSB and Mixed-Mode sections, for both HP and LP, on the
6 contest bands from 10-160m. 

Rules at http://rdaward.org/rdac1.htm

SD supports SO entries in RDAC. V13.27 runs on any Windows
PC and is free from www.ei5di.com/sd/sdsetup.exe.
 
   UK Entrants - select SD's "RDA, DX" template.

Work Russians only.  SD displays inappropriate callsigns
or prefixes in red.  If they're not red, they're OK to
work for points.

Send   : 59(9) + Serial
Receive: 59(9) + 4-character district code.

SD tracks new district-code mults as they are logged.
RDA.LST, a callsign database with some 17000 Russian
callsigns extracted from previous RDA logs, is included
and loaded at startup.  SD then auto-fills the 4-character
district code on a callsign match.

If you don't use SD, RDA.LST may still be worth having
for your preferred logger.

Use SDCHECK to create your Cabrillo .LOG file.
Email it, as an attached file, to rx3rc at rdaward.org.

Please mention SD in your Cabrillo soapbox comments.
