[RTTY] WPX funnies

[Jurgen Geldhof]

No new software, I guess someone using N1MM... probably a previous version?

I had this problem several times during ARRL RU.

After ARRL RU I (and some others) mentioned this on the N1MM list but 
noone seemed to be able to reproduce it.

During RU it happened to me sometimes when working 2 stations at the 
same time on 2 radios. Sometimes also the wrong number was sent (number 
of qso on radio 1 was sent on radio 2 and the other way around).

Haven't had this in WPX though. Only things changed here in the setup: 
Update to last version of N1MM and 'hover mode' on in RU, 'hover mode' 
off in WPX.
