HF Country files (by Jim Reisert, AD1C)

• Country files which can be imported in the program (cty.dat or wl_cty.dat). The better choice is wl_cty.dat
• Import this country file by selecting 'Import country list from downloaded file' in the 'Tools' menu.
• Look for install information on: Customizing the DXCC list

Super Check Partial Database Files for HF contests

• Randy, K5ZD, creates a few times a year several  types of Check Partial Database files (also called Master files):
• • Master.dta - for international contests (all calls)
  • masterdx.dta - for DX contests (non US/VE calls)
  • masterusve.dta - For US/VE contests with W/VE calls
  • masterss.dta - for ARRL sweepstakes contests
• Copy these files in the program directory and select the one to use in the tab 'Associated Files' under 'File | Open Log in Database' dialog'.
• The calls in these database master files appear in the Check window after entering at least two letters of the callsign field.

Super Check Partial Database Files for VHF and up contests (North America only)

• The calls in this database master.dta file appear in the Check window after entering at least two letters of the callsign field. Copy this file in the program directory and select it in the tab 'Associated Files' under 'File | Open Log in Database' dialog'.

Thucydides “A history manager for N1MM logger” by Carel, PC5M

• A great tool to create import files from previous contest logs for the N1MM logger Call History function.
• More info about this program in the chapter 'Third Party Software'

Makehistory may be used to generate callhistory.txt files for import, this should only be necessary where the Cabrillo logs are from legacy logging programs and have not been imported into N1MM. The program handles not only Cabrillo logs but other ascii logs as well.
If the log has already been imported into N1MM use Thucydides.
