[WriteLog] Two apps on ONE soundcard?

[Jerry Pixton]

Jerry,

Under WinXP this seems to be doable. I have several cases where I am 
running two apps on the same card. The one I do often is Rttyrite in cw 
mode and CWget on the Santa Cruz. Seems to work although I have questions 
about the efficiency of doing so. I will often switch to another card but 
don't seem to notice a difference.
