[CQ-Contest] SS: not sending your own callsign - and the answer is.....

[Alex Malyava]

Even the latest and greatest version of N1MM has "P YR SEC" default
exchange.
This was my first year in SS contest so I managed to screw up very first
contact. I repeated the exchange manually and then fixed the exchange in
settings to "001 P K2BB YR SEC" format.
