I do single op 2 radio, but I haven't gotten around to checking out the
2-radio software support, so I just use two computers networked
together. I used 9.45 this weekend, but remember seeing this weird
behavior in earlier versions also.
If you log a QSO on computer #1, the QSO data gets sent to computer #2, but
computer #2 doesn't update its "send this #" value until a new QSO is
logged on computer #2. CT *should* update its "send this #" value when a
new QSO is received over the network. I had to do a lot of manual exchange
sending because of this. Also, if you happen to press ALT-W to wipe the
contents of the current QSO entry while the second computer is "out of
sync", it will show the wrong QSO # on the screen. The wrong # will also
scroll up the screen as you continue to log QSOs. Hopefully the wrong
number isn't stored in the .BIN file (I got home late and haven't done a
WRITELOG yet). I made note entries whenever this happened so I could
manually fix the .LOG file afterwards if necessary.
