Logs:
Electronic log submissions:
The Cabrillo format is prefered but not mandatory.
Please make sure that you fill in the Cabrillo header
correctly and name the file callsign.log. An additional
and COMPLETELY separate single band of choice log for
Single Op all bands entrants must show the same
information as above and be named with your
callsign_band.log.
Information on Cabrillo format for SARTG contest can be
found here. Contest name is SARTG-RTTY.
Users of "RTTY" by WF1B should convert their files. A
conversion program can be found here.
For non-Cabrillo entries only two files are required,
callsign.all and callsign.sum. These logs must be in
chronological order and show: band, date/time (UTC),
call sign, exchange message sent and received,
multipliers and QSO points.
Please submit electronic logs as plain ASCII-files. Do
not send Word, Excel or ADIF-files as they create extra
work as they have to manually be converted to
ASCII-files before processing.
Multi-Op stations must include the call signs and names
of all operators involved.
Electronic logs can be submitted by Email or on 3 ½ inch
disk togheter with a printed summary sheet.
Paper log submissions:
The log must be in chronological order showing the same
information as required for electronic ones. In
addition, a written summary sheet, dupe sheet and
multiplier sheet must be submitted.
Check logs:
Check logs are very much appreciated, they are used for
cross checking of all entries.
Your comments will be very much appreciated.
Awards: To the top stations in each class,
country and district, if the number of QSOs is
reasonable.
Logs Deadline: Logs must be received by October
10 to qualify.
