N1MM

N1MM Free Contest Logger

General Overview

The N1MM Logger is a freeware program designed to do contest logging and some general logging. It is not a general logging program with award tracking etc. but is mainly a contest logging program. Check the Features listing.

Important! The usefulness of this program is greatly enhanced by reading the Key Assignments

The Quick Tour is another must read.

These are the Supported Contests and the Supported Radios.

The program can be used on Windows 95/98/ME and on Windows NT/2000/XP. DOS is not supported. Windows 95 is not encouraged.

N1MM logger discussion groups

These groups discusses features, bugs, and ideas for the N1MM Free Contest Logger.

Digital group: Messages dealing solely with digital mode issues (including digital contests) will be posted to the digital group
General group: Messages dealing with general program issues (including CW and SSB contest) will be posted to the general group.

In general messages should not be cross-posted, either by users or by the development team.
This is important, both to get the benefit of the subdivision and to encourage users to subscribe to both

Users are asked please to separate digital and general/non-digital issues into individual messages and post them in the right places
-- on the receiving side, all e-mail software has tools to sort e-mail into folders by origin, so nothing should get lost.

The development team will continue to track both forums and respond on the one that seems appropriate.

So if your interest is primarily digital, for example, you may want to subscribe to the general group in one of the digest formats available. If it is primarily non-digital, then you might do the same thing, in reverse.

Note: digital operators are well advised to subscribe to the general Yahoo group and the digital Yahoo group, even if not interested in CW or SSB, because general things about the program that affect them (font changes in various windows, to take an abstruse example), are likely to be discussed there rather than in both lists.

Programming specifics

Coded in Visual Basic 6.0 using no aftermarket controls.
Current exe size (p-code) about 3000 kB.
38 Forms, 21 Modules, 115 Classes.
71718 lines of code (57156 lines without the window controls).
Uses one freeware dll for LPT port control and one for crc32.
Database used is Access 2000.
Uses data-bound controls for log and check functions.
Uses MMTTY for soundcard RTTY support (FSK and AFSK).
Uses MMVARI for soundcard PSK support (PSK31, PSK63 and all other MMVARI modes).

The logging program has been designed to work on a Pentium II/III 500-800 MHz, 128 MB as a minimum platform. Thus, it runs reasonably on a 500 MHz Pentium II. Whether it can run as designed on slower speed machines is to be determined. It has not been and won't be a priority to make it run on clunkers.

Program development?

N2AMG, PA1M and I develop the software. It is a cooperative development venture. If you have programming or other skills we'd be interested in your help. To help develop, you'll need your own copy of .Visual .Basic 6.0 PE or EE. A copy of .Access 2000 is helpful, but not required. Contact N1MM to discuss working on this project. Source code is provided to those who would like to contribute to the project.
