Folks

Just a reminder that the first of the new series of RSGB Sprint contests 
starts this week, with the CW Sprint on 80m on Thursday 14th Aug at 
19:00Z.

The RSGB HFCC web site has the rules and some useful examples to explain 
the exchanges. (Tim G4VXE has also covered this in the August Rad Com)
http://www.vhfcc.org/hfcc/rules/2008/rsprint.shtml


Just like the Club Championship contests, please ensure that your 
cabrillo log has it's filename in the format "yourcall.log" & that 
you identify the category you're in (it's either "LOW" or "QRP"). 
The assumption will be that you are in the "LOW" category unless 
otherwise stated.

Or, you may like to use a new facility to enable you to enter your log 
on-line after the contest. The following link takes you to that web 
address.

Finally, a sample Sprint log is shown below (the spacing between QSO 
columns is reduced a bit to fit the screen, but it'll give you an idea 
of what the log should look like.

Hope to see you all in the contest.
