[CQ-Contest] Realtime Scoring for all now with N1MM support

[Pete Smith]

Pat, should we expect incompatibilities between your score reporting software and Dave's?  I notice that you say "In the N1MM logger.ini file look for the [other] section and add the following line:

Running Score Location = realtimescore\runningscore.txt"

Dave's instructions say exactly the same thing.  Is it simply a matter of both programs reading the same text file?

I notice that yours wants to install a rather large .dll, and also over 3 meg of Python files, and I'm just wondering about destructive outcomes.  Have you tested with both installed and running simultaneously?

Where should your files be installed?  In the realtimescore folder, or in the base program file?

73, Pete N4ZR
