So if the second radio only works MULTs the # of band changes would not matter?

Your understanding of the MS band change counting for WPX is correct.

Subject: [WriteLog] Band Changes in WPX

I was trying the band changes window for cq wpx cw contest. I remember I
had problems last year and I was trying to find my mistakes in the setup.
I use 12.23J version. 2 computers are in network and we are going to run
MS.

According rules, 10 band changes are allowed. I setup the network, I went
to Contest>parameter setup and told that we run MS. Also I set the
2 radios in radio menu as "this radio is run(A)" and the 2nd one as radio
(B) mult). I remind that in cq wpx band changes count and not if the 2nd
radio gets mults or simple qsos. Also right click over the band changes
windows and ticked "band changes per hour". I started log qsos in both
radios.

If I have understand the rules ok, this counts as follows (and this is
what I was expected to see in band changes window):

20m radio logs a qso  - 0 band change (for both radios)

40m radio logs a qso - 1 band change (for both radios)

20m radio logs a qso - 2 band changes (for both radios)

40m radio logs a qso - 3 band changes (for both radios)

40m radio logs another qso - 3 band changes (for both radios)

20m radio logs a qso - 4 band changes (for both radios)

20m radio logs a qso - 4 band changes (for both radios)

and goes on.... Both radios - computers are the same (run or mult does not
has a differnce - really one signal is allowed - not as cq ww where mult
radio could do qsos if these were mults) and should be allowed to have 10
band changes in total every single hour, that is from 00 to 59 minute.

My writelog does not count right. The 2 computers have different numbers!
Also a scenario. Let's suppose that network goes down for a while. When it
comes again on and both logs are synchronized, numbers in band changes
should change and be the same for 2 radios.

Any help?
