Show the boxes N1MM shows for each contest
The entry window had a fixed set of boxes with a Name and Comment box beside the exchange. N1MM lays out one row of boxes per contest and nothing else, so this does the same: general logging keeps Name and Comment, and a contest gets the boxes it exchanges. Two new members on `Contest` carry the cases where the boxes and the log columns are not the same list: - `FromExchange1` spreads what was typed in one box across the log columns. Where the other station sends a serial or a district code depending on where it is, N1MM gives it one box and sorts the value into the number, section or zone column from there, so the score and the Cabrillo file read it from the same column N1MM does. - `LogFieldsFor` gives the log window its own column list. Sweepstakes takes the whole exchange in one box and logs it in four columns; `SweepstakesExchange` parses `72 A 74 SCV` in any order, reading from the last word back as N1MM does. The sent serial is now marked as not required and space steps over it along with the two report boxes, because nobody types the number going out.

### The boxes a contest shows, and the two lights
|

|

Beside the exchange are a Name box and a Comment box, as N1MM has them. Neither
|
||||
is part of the exchange, so neither holds up a contact: they fill the log's Name
|
||||
and Comment columns, and a contest that exchanges a name uses that instead.
|
||||
Neither is in the space walk, as neither is in N1MM's; tab reaches both. The name is filled from the call history file when there is one,
|
||||
and what the call history says in its UserText column appears under the entry
|

boxes.
|

The entry window shows the boxes N1MM's entry window shows for that contest and
|
||||
no others. General logging has a Name box and a Comment box; a contest has the
|
||||
boxes it exchanges. Two of them are for what this station sends — the report and
|
||||
the serial number — and both are filled in and stepped over, as they are in
|
||||
N1MM.
|
||||
|
||||
Where the other station sends a serial number or a district code depending on
|
||||
where it is, there is one box for both, again as in N1MM: what is typed goes in
|
||||
the exchange column, and the number, section or zone column as well, so the
|
||||
score and the Cabrillo file read it from the same place N1MM does. Sweepstakes
|
||||
takes its whole exchange in one box — `72 A 74 SCV`, in any order — and logs it

in four columns.

It also steps over a box this station is not asked for, such as the state in
