Jim,

What you describe would be a conflict.  The solution is to have WriteLog key
the K2 via the parallel port.  You then also configure WriteLog to talk to a
tentec pegasus.  This will cause all WriteLog's radio commands to come to my
program.  My program will keep track of everything and control one or two
K2's in complete harmony.  My program will worry about which K2 has last
transmitted and export the appropriate frequency to WrieLog.
