This doesn't answer Mark's original question. How do you set up 4
computers in the network such that lockout is enforced between two or
more computers on the same band, but computers on different bands do
not lock each other out?
The typical arrangement is two coupled computers, one for run and
one for S&P, on the same band. The S&P operator attempts to make
Q's by interleaving transmissions with the run op. If the station layout
allows it this could also be a single operator doing SO2R on the same
band as part of a multi-op.
Setting up 2 different networks, one for each of the computer pairs,
would enable partitioned lockout but then the logs would not be shared.
