[WriteLog] BARTG Spring RTTY Contest Buffers

Bill,

When you have more than one entry window, Writelog does a good job of 
assigning unique serial numbers to each as you put calls in them.

The configuration is SO2R. You click a call from each rttyrite window for 
each radio (or even one radio with dual receive like the FT1000mp) and then 
you try to call each but the one you try first comes back to someone else 
so you call the other (and send a serial two greater than last logged). Now 
you go back to the first station and send its report which has a serial one 
less than last logged. Or you must remove that call sign and re-click on it 
to get the next serial number.

Or you have a green one queued up to work and you see a yellow on the other 
radio so you work him. He gets serial plus 2 while the green one gets 
serial plus one (or one less than you just sent to the yellow station)

Clear as qrm??? Doesn't happen on single radio single rtty window. But I 
would guess that even things like using the sound board and a Rttyrite 
window and another sound board and MMTTY in a second window feeding the 
same audio to both, would cause the same effect. Although I havn't yet 
tried that.
