The N1MM+ Contest Logging Software must be installed first. If this happens it is OK as after log file submission the CQWE scoring and validation software will disallow any duplicate QSOs at scoring time. If you configure N1MM+ for digital mode logging (RTTY and PSK only) and you do both RTTY and PSK, N1MM+ will not indicate dupes between the RTTY and PSK modes thus allowing you do log multiple digital QSO's with same station. If you are RETIRED - Please make sure to follow instructions below to indicate your retired status. This IS OK - as your CQWE score will be calculated properly by the CQWE scoring and validataion software when you submit your log.

There are imperfections related to mixing digital modes that are described below along with instructions to enable digital mode logging. It can also be used for digital contacts but you must manually enable this. However, if you use the proper years CQWE package for N1MM+ it will allow you to log contacts properly for CW and SSB (validating the CQWE location codes) and produce a log file that you can submit for scoring. There are limitations with what N1MM+ allows in user defined contests so this implementation could not be made perfect.
