(actual start time is top of the hour on Thursday)Speaker: Kevan Nason, N4XLTopic: N1MM+ Steps to Ensure Successful Contesting Operation (Parts 1 & 2)Description: N1MM+ is overwhelmingly the contest logger of choice by contesters around the world. But with over 900 pages in its user manual, it can be intimidating to set up and use. Creating “How To” instructions for adding N1MM+ to your shack is challenging due to the individuality of each station, varying levels of operator technical knowledge, and widely differing thoughts on what contesting aids to incorporate into a person’s operating style. In a two part series, N4XL has collected a few lessons learned about configuring and using N1MM+ that have helped him, and others, get this great program up and running. It is geared primarily towards CW and SSB operators, but many areas overlap into Digi and RTTY operations. Part 1 examines some of the bewildering amount of configuration choices offered by the program. It will identify several N1MM+ and Windows settings that commonly cause frustration and provide online resources to aid in configuration. It also describes how Audacity can be used to enhance voice keyer operations. Part 2 describes Enter Sends Message operating, macros, information available in the Entry Window, and useful keyboard shortcut keys. N1MM will be used for live demonstrations of Super Check Partial assistance in identifying call signs, and show how self-generated or cluster spots can be effectively used with keyboard shortcut keys to enhance S&P operation.~~~~~~~~~~~~Here is the official invitation that you may use to connect to our Zoom™ meeting room: Larry Anderson is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
