[Dx4win] Multiple MMTTY windows

[Wayne]

Hi Garry,

I usually rx the DX on the main VFO, while RX and TX on the sub VFO 
watching for where the DX is listening and adjusting accordingly. 
Transmitting from the Main version of MMTTY follows the transmit focus 
of the radio. So if the radio is set to transmit on Main, the 1st or 
main installation of MMTTY sends FSK from that VFO. If I choose to have 
the transmit focus on the SUB VFO,or split mode,  the radio still uses 
the 1st or main MMTTY version to transmit FSK from the sub VFO. You need 
to make sure both VFOs are set to the same mode.Rx will only work on the 
corresponding VFO as the sound out is fixed by the radio. So the main 
MMTTY or 1st copy has Left channel sound card selected, and the 2nd copy 
of MMTTY has the right channel audio selected. The radio has to be in 
DUAL RX to get audio to both copies of MMTTY and both sides of the 
stereo sound channels.

My main or 1st copy of MMTTY is installed in a folder of MMTTY. The 2nd 
copy of MMTTY is installed in a folder called MMTTY2. I have shortcuts 
to both exe files so labeled on my desktop so I can bring each version 
up individually or simultaneously as needed.

Have fun with this.
