[PVRCNC] NAQP and Online Scoreboard

[Stephen Worth]

Jim,
I cannot fully answer this question, but I can provide the following.  As
Don said you can start the online scoreboard, log in, and minimize the
window.  I do that to save space on my screen.

You can log into the online scoreboard after the contest start and N1MM
will update your score in the contest on its next update cycle.  I often
forget about the online scoreboard until after I have been operating a
bit.  I have never tried doing this right at the end of a contest so I do
not know if  that works, but it seems like it should.

One thing I can warn you of.  At the end of the context please keep the
online scoreboard and N1MM running for 5 (minimum) extra minutes so your
last N1MM data gets recorded.  (N1MM update is set at 5 min. by default I
believe).  If you shut down N1MM and then come back later to let it update
the online scoreboard that will not happen.   I suspect that once the
contest is closed and if you break the connection between N1MM and the
online scoreboard the scoreboard software will not let N1MM connect to that
contest again (for updating) after the fact.
