Did other radio control functions still work at that point - like changing 
bands via ALT-F1/F2 or typing a freq directly into the log?

My guess is all radio/PC communications were busted because you accidentally 
choose Radio2 when you didn't have one.  One of CT's most troubling "features" 
is that it allows you to attempt to toggle control to a radio you already told 
it wasn't there in "setups".  CT also let's you try to rotate rotators that 
aren't "setup", but this causes no trouble.

ALT-PERIOD (used to be simply PERIOD in older releases) toggles between Radio1 
to Radio2.  You can see which is chosen in the red area above the log.

I always DEFINEKEY away that function (I remap ALT-PERIOD to open "help") well 
before the contest starts.
