Each station worked out its next number as the highest in its log plus one,
so two operators typing at the same moment both sent the same number and
one of the two contacts was wrong in the sponsor's log.
SerialNumberPool holds the highest number taken per band, which is N1MM's
QSONumbers array. A number is taken at the first character of the callsign,
as N1MM takes it, and ReserveNr tells the other stations before the contact
is worked. A number at or below one this station has used is answered with
the whole pool, N1MM's QSONRS, and the station that is behind counts on from
there. The pool also goes out when a contest is opened and when the numbers
are started again.
Contest.NumbersByBand says whether the numbers run per band or as one
sequence for the station. CQ WPX runs one per band for a multi-two and a
multi-multi; every other contest here runs one sequence. The band index in
the message is N1MM's, so the array lines up with theirs.

Two pieces of work on the scoring engine.
The .udc reader now takes N1MM's published scoring vocabulary: the full
PointsPerContact condition set, the PointsMultBy family, PowerMult, BonusPoints,
the multiplier sources and the settings that say which stations bring a
multiplier in. MultMult is a weight rather than a switch, as in N1MM's
ComputeScore. The entry categories and the sent exchange reach the rules in a
new ContestEntry, so a contest can score by the power category it is entered in
or by what this station sends.
Then every contest in a real N1MM log was scored again from these rules and
compared with the points and multiplier flags N1MM wrote. That found five bugs:
ARRL DX and IARU read the exchange from the wrong column, a stored " " was read
as a value rather than as empty, CQ WW RTTY's own Canadian area names were not
counted, a maritime mobile scored nothing, and a contact in a mode the contest
does not run scored as if it were in the contest.
docs/n1mm-interop.md has the check and what still differs.

Frequencies, bands, modes, callsigns, grid squares and the country file live in
Nonemm.Core. Nonemm.Contests holds the scoring engine and CQ WW and CQ WPX.
Nonemm.Storage writes N1MM's DXLOG schema, and Nonemm.Formats writes Cabrillo
3.0 and reads and writes ADIF.
