Hi Nate,
The good place to ask this question is on the N1MM Logger Yahoo discussion
group. I know of one major, networked HF contest station that uses N1MM
Logger. I doubt that they would be using N1MM Logger if there was a chance
of a lost QSO.

Rob,
"Supports computer networking" and..."Recovers correctly from loss of
computer networking"...
Are definitely two different things.
Has anyone done any testing on any of the popular logging software to
see how resiliant (or stupid) they are when/if the network or a machine
bounces?
Most of the applications seem to need a "master" machine... this is
reasonable, but if the master goes down, things get weird...
It seems "possible" to code to avoid this, but haven't seen any logging
software that does this well, yet...
Any thoughts from the group?
We saw some really odd behaviour with WriteLog last year if laptops on
the 802.11b network wandered out of range. It's not super-smart about
losing the network.
Are any of the popular programs "smart" about network loss yet? I'm
just curious.
