[WriteLog] Re: Serial Numbers in Multi Operations

[dl6jz at t-online.de]

Hi Bob,

you are not fully right. Think of the WAEDC. In the MOST category there
are several transmitters TRANSMITTING at the SAME MOMENT allowed.
The 2nd, 3rd,.. transmitter are allowed to work mults only but there
can be more than one signal on the air at the same time.

So it would be fine if WriteLog is able to produce consecutive numbered
serials. But I know that this is a difficult problem.
