[WriteLog] using two Icom radios

Wed Jun 9 20:41:09 PDT 2010

I am not at home right now (and don't have 2 icom radios), but you might 
try looking at LP-Bridge software. This allows you to set up virtual Com 
ports so that more than 1 program can access a single port. I use it 
with Dx4Win & MMTTY. on my K3. I would think you could configure 2 
virtual ports for the same CT-17 and set up 1 radio on each within 
WritLog. For the price (free), give it a try.
