[PaQSO] software

Logging stations with /COUNTY or /R is not recommended for users of N1MM 
Logger software.


Stations logged with /M will be logged as a valid contact and points will be 
assigned for the contact. So all bonus, mobile, rover, portable, and county 
line stations need to be logged with  /M.

If you log contacts that are identical CALLSIGN/M but in different counties, 
you will receive point credit. If you log CALLSIGN/M in a previous logged 
county, it is logged with zero points.


By typing any station callsign, the software displays all contacts with that 
station so you can tell if you worked the station prior in that county.
