You are correct Al. 

It's used when you are calling CQ and more than one station answers you. There is lots of info on the n1mm yahoo pages about it. As how Writelog works it, I've forgotten. I think that Don, AA5AU uses Writelog. I know that Jay, WS7I still does. 

Download the Writelog manual and search it with the search command in Adobe.

  Can anyone explain the "next command" in N1MM (or WriteLog for that matter).  What's the purpose?  I did a quick Google search and came up with nothing helpful.  I'm assuming that it's for when you hear multiple callsigns in the pileup and want to work one after the other without calling qrz or cq.  Is this correct, and if so, I'm eagerly awaiting the answers - especially if anybody has info on how this works in Writelog.

    Well RTTY roundup is done for another year! I did pretty well at single op high power. about 1350-Q's and 98 mults...

    I used to use Writelog but now am using n1mm. Has anyone else switched? If so, what do you think? I know that n1mm does LOTS of stuff and can be very complicated to set up. With this in mind, I'm looking at the best way to set up the next command in n1mm. Has anyone had success with it? How do you like to operate it? It's been so long since I've used Writelog, I can't remember how the NEXT  command works with it.

    Let the group know your thoughts...

    73 and thanks for your contacts this weekend!
