[PaQSO] N1MM Call History File

[John Bednar]

I have enhanced Mark's instructions below and added #7 & #8 for the reverse
callsign lookup and county line logging.

Complements of Mark, AA3K a N1MM Call History file can be found at:

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3412698/PaQP2013CallHistory.zip

    1. Download and unzip the file and put it in an easy to access
location on your hard drive.

    2. Start N1MM and configure for the PA QSO party contest.

    3. In N1MM go to File | Import | Import Call History... and select
PaQPCallHistory.txt from where you saved it. Do not import the *zip file.

    4. Make sure "Call History Lookup" is checked in N1MM's Config
menu.

    5. Test by entering W3ZGD.  It should populate the county field with
YOR and the bottom of the entry window with '2013 Bonus Station!!!'

    6. If you don't see '2013 Bonus Station!!!' increase the height of
the entry window until you do.


  7. To enable Reverse Callsign Lookup, open the Check window with the
Window menu. Right click in the Check window and check "Show Reverse
Look-Up". In the same menu, the default Threshold option can be changed if
you want the reverse lookup callsigns to be displayed after the 2nd or 3rd
character. To test, enter a County exchange in the Exch box and the
callsigns from the log and call history will be displayed with the county in
parenthesis. If a partial callsign is entered in the callsign box, the
reverse callsign lookup will filter the results based on the callsign.

8. You can log county line stations as separate QSO's or enter the exchanges
in the Exchange box separated with /. The latter method will automatically
log a QSO for each county found in the exchange box. If an abbreviation was
entered incorrectly, the user will be informed.
