N1MM Eclipse QSO Party Log

[Chris Cote]

I am new to this and looking on the N1MM logging site I don't see the log for this event.  Will they post it shortly?  We are going to participate as a club with just one station setup.

Chris - I"m not quite sure what you mean by "I don't see a log for this event" on the N1MM website.

There are some basic instructions for creating an eclipse QSO party log in N1MM, on the HamSCI.org website:

https://hamsci.org/seqp-rules

Scroll down to the bottom of the page, and hopefully that will answer your question.

Chris I just went in and looked and it looks like it has not been created yet so watch on this forum and when it is created you should see some info about it, I know that it will be in N1MM.

Have a nice day!

Aha!  I think I see the source of the confusion:  The SEQP is missing from the list of supported contests on the N1MM website.

https://n1mmwp.hamdocs.com/manual-supported/contests-list/

I posted a request to the N1MM reflector that it be added to the list.  Rest assured that it is a supported contest!

If you're new to N1MM+, I recommend you start with https://n1mmwp.hamdocs.com/getting-started/.  It's an excellent tutorial for those new to the world's most popular contest (not daily) logger.

After you have created a database, click on File then New Log in Database.  If you tap the "E" letter on your keyboard, it will bring you to the following screen:

Select the highlighted "ECLIPSE" choice and the logger will be ready to log your eclipse QSO's.

Good luck in the contest!  BTW, our FT8/FT4 and CW QSO's will provide valuable data for the smart guys (not me) in HamSCI to analyze--thank-you!  SSB QSO's in the logs provide useful information too but CW and digital QSO's are much better since the Reverse Beacon Network (RBN) and PSK Reporter automatically collect data points without anyone sending logs to HamsSCI.
