[WriteLog] Two sound cards and MMTTY

[Jerry Pixton]

Nick,

The only addition I would make is, I always get in the habit of opening the 
rttyrite window for "radio right" first so that it contains the audio from 
the radio on the right. Writelog will always open the first window from the 
configuration in [rttyrite] and the second window from [rttyrite2] so you 
want to make sure your cursor is in the proper entry window to get it all 
matched up. Things get confusing when you change one to the rttyrite 
windows to cw or psk and then go back to open an rtty window. Often you 
will get the wrong one and I have to close both windows and reopen them in 
the proper order. In my case, my primary radio is on the right and Writelog 
knows it as the second entry window.
