I'm a new user of N1MM (I was using DOS-based CT for all these decades). SS was my
2nd contest using N1MM.
While setting up SS, carefully following the instructions, I noted that when I set up the SS
exchange, that my callsign was not going to be sent (before the contest started).
I contacted one of the N1MM mavens, who immediately asked, "Where are you getting that
setup from?" When I told him, he immediately modified the on-line documentation.
So anyone who "knew," would know that you needed to send your call in the middle of the
exchange. But I am guessing that some folks simply "copied" the faulty instructions.
This was probably a simple mistake.
