[WriteLog] Dueling CQ's in WriteLog?

[Jerry Flanders]

Thanks for the note, Don. I got an encouraging 
detailed  note from n0at a few minutes ago 
telling me that it definitely worked this morning 
on his rig. So I haven't given up yet. I am going 
to update to 11.30c and start over. I will check 
to see if CW works this time before I try RTTY.

Two PC SO2R is a lot simpler and works FB. I used 
to do it that way, but my Flex 6700 is two radios 
in one box and doesn't allow 2 PCs to control it.

BTW, I believe this could be done with an 
external macro program if their macro can call 
another macro, but I haven't pursued that yet.
