Of course! What you are suggesting is "low hanging fruit", easy to "pick". It makes sense. Change everything for the better. Participants will be held accountable for their operation in the court of
There are several problems with real-time scoring, but the most glaring is that it provides the same service as packet spotting. It would not take much for an enterprising programmer to create a prog
A simple step would be to not report the exact frequency, just the band. My test project showed exact frequency simply because that's what's in the field in N1MM. If I were working with TRLog it woul

You can schedule tasks in windows down to every minute if you want. That is what I used to use to copy the text score file that n1mmlogger can generate to my web server... now I just use n1mm to put
