[WriteLog] M2 mult station setup

[Kostas SV1DPI]

really the rules ask for hardware interlock. I believe that the rules 
ask for hardware because with software interlock there is always the 
chance to steal even by mistake. For example you can use your key or 
your microphone and steal. But this is up to you. If software interlock 
works as it works in writelog (just perfect) and not as it works in n1mm 
(totally unreliable) there is no problem to comply with the meaning of 
the rules. I know many stations work with software interlock without 
problems but they don't allow keys or mics and there is no problem!
