I just worked ST0R yesterday and when I log them it shows as Sudan. I realize that the ITU has not assigned a separate prefix for the new South Sudan so we will just have to wait for them. Any suggestions in the meantime? TIA 73 Alan, K7ACZ -Original Message- From:

I am assuming he means he wants to email his contest log entry to the CQ contest people as a Cabrillo log. George, what most people do is to use a contest logger, like the free N1MM program, to log contest contacts. Then after the contest it gives you an ADIF file that I import into DX4WIN (using
