[WriteLog] Multi 2 logging

[George Johnson]

John,
You need to make sure the log reflects which of the TWO transmitters is 
being "credited" with the band change.  As noted in the rules, you set up 2 
stations with 2 logs.  There is a column that identifies the 
transmitter.  Since you are trying to "fit" a third entry point into the 
log, that terminal must identify where to "credit" the QSO.

 From the rules:

    * Each of the two transmitters used must keep a separate chronological 
log for the entire contest period, or if electronic logging is used, the 
electronic log submittal (Cabrillo) must indicate which transmitter made 
each QSO. Each transmitter may make a maximum of 8 band changes in any 
clock hour (00 through 59 minutes).
Good luck,
George W1ZT
