We have a county line setup as one point per contact (or 2 points if CW or digital) with a County line station. The separate counties will count as distinct multipliers. Useable if you need that county, or doesn't matter if you already have it.

The way to log county line stations in N1MM is described in page 234 of the N1MM Logger Documentation 2011-05-26_merged.pdf file that comes with the program. I'm pretty certain that it is the present one since I just downloaded it last week. But you can search "county line" in the N1MM Logger Documentation pdf file. 

DIfferent programs log county line stations differently. Some have a single QSO and you can enter the different counties at the same time that way.N1MM's county line method as described in the manual is perfectly acceptable.

Other parties might be different - perhaps that is a part of the confusion. But you can rest assured that we don't ream anyone out for something like county line errors.
