Re: N1MM to DXKeeper Gateway multiple county issue

+ AA6YQ comments below
I'm running DXKeeper Gateway version 1.1.5 and 1.0.8701.0 N1MM and up-to-date versions of Dxkeeper and Dxview. I was working a state QSO party this weekend and one station sent me four counties in Illinois. All four counties showed up as separate QSOs in N1MM + Did you direct N1MM to log one QSO, or four QSOs? + Does anyone from the N1MM development team know whether N1MM emits one or four <contactinfo> UDP messages in a scenario like this? but only the first two counties got transferred to DXKeeper and LOTW. + Where were the first two counties recorded in DXKeeper? I was impressed that N1MM parsed it + To what does the word "it" refer? and that at least two counties made it into dxkeeper and LOTW but if I were a county hunter, I'd miss the other two counties. + The N1MM-DXKeeper Gateway does not convey US counties from N1MM to DXKeeper; see the list of information conveyed in the Operation section of <https://www.dxlabsuite.com/N1MM-DXKeeper/index.htm> Is there a limit of two counties or a string length issue? They all were four characters. (GALL/HAML/SALI/WHIT). + DXKeeper does not interpret 4-character sequences appended to callsigns as US County names. DXKeeper can record callsigns of up to 13 characters in length. + The N1MM-DXKeeper Gateway logs one QSO in DXKeeper in response to each <contactinfo> UDP message it receives from N1MM. <https://n1mmwp.hamdocs.com/appendices/external-udp-broadcasts/#contact-info-udp-packet> + The <contactinfo> UDP message does not provide a means of conveying the name of a US country, or of any other secondary administrative subdivision. 73, Dave, AA6YQ
