Problem: When in a multi-operator situation, there may be times when one of the operators
is not paying attention, and places his/her radio on the same band as another,
transmitting station. Depending on the antenna situation, this can cause front-end
smoke, and the end of a radio for at least the contest duration.
This is not a fun situation to be in.
Solution: MSWatch. MSWatch is a FREE application you run along side
Writelog, for each of your multiop positions. It monitors the frequency of
each radio, and broadcasts messages across your network to each MSWatch client.
If an operator attempts to change a radio to a band which is already in use,
MSWatch prevents transmission. How? Well, go to the MSWatch Website,
http://www.hamsoftware.net/writelog, read the details, and download.
Just in time for WW SSB... no more blown radios!
