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.
