[WriteLog] Missing Log Entries

Hi Bob. If the log is showing contacts from both radios, then how are you convinced that you are missing contacts from the second radio?
Missing serial numbers in the log do not necessarily mean you are missing contacts. When serial numbers are part of the exchange (and they weren't in CQWW RTTY), WriteLog will sometimes skip serial numbers and some time have two contacts with the same serial number. This is not uncommon when running more than one radio.
So other than the skipped serial numbers, is there is other evidence contacts are missing? I'm hoping very much that you don't have any missing contacts.

Good morning everyone, firstly if you worked GU0URR in CQWW RTTY over the weekend. 
Thank you all. 

Now. I was running two radios. One was my run radio and the other multiplier hunting on a different band. 

If it's at all relevant to the log I was running two versions of Mmty each one in a separate rtty rite Window. Both the radios were connected to track band changes. One radio was set as main and the other as multiplier radio. Radios set to 2. It was set up to show in the log which radio made the contact and that part is in the log. 

It seems that I have around 100 contacts (that's most likely all of the contacts) made on the multiplier radio that are not showing in the log. 
The serial numbers in the log show skipped numbers and the band summary doesn't include them. I've just realised that makes it even more complicated. The radio 1 and 2 are showing in the log !! But with missing numbers in the sequence !!

I cannot seem to see a way of recovering the contacts. I have tried recalculating the score. 

Has anyone got any ideas. 

Cheers guys. 

A weary GU0URR
