New feature request by @KC8OWL!

Will a logbook template for the 2026 ARRL Sweepstakes be made available that streamlines the 6 pieces of information required? See: [https://contests.arrl.org/ContestRules/SS-Rules.pdf](https://contests.arrl.org/ContestRules/SS-Rules.pdf)

Exchange: The following six pieces of information must be sent in each contact: the sequential serial  
number of the contact, your precedence (type of station – A, B, Q, M, S, or U – see the Special Rules),  
your call sign, your check (the last two digits of the year the operator or station was first licensed), and  
the abbreviation for your ARRL or RAC section. It is highly recommended that you send the information  
in this order to avoid confusion. Your call sign must be included in the exchange transmitted to the other  
station.  
This is a typical contest contact:  
CQing Station: CQ Sweepstakes from W9JJ  
Answering Station: W1AW  
CQer: W1AW 123 A W9JJ 79 CT  
Answer: 43 M W1AW 31 CT  
CQer: Thanks, CQ Sweepstakes from W9JJ

@KC8OWL This is already added to the contest page for both CW and SSB. The site says 6 exchanges but its actually only 5 when you look at the exchange information listed on the site

1 = Serial Number  
2 = Precedence  
3 = Callsign  
4 = Check  
5 = ARRL/RAC Section

All of these are added on the upcoming contest page - [https://app.worldradioleague.com/contest/upcoming](https://app.worldradioleague.com/contest/upcoming)
