[WT-support] WT under W2K

[Nick Lekic]

Hi Olivier/Larry
Just to reiterate what happened here in hope to find out the answer.  I 
was also operating at VE3SY's in WPX this past weekend.  
At one point one of the computers in M/2 network got restarted for a 
reason not related to Win-Test.   This computer was designated as a R2 
in the Win-Test network.   When Win-Test was restarted , the radio 
designator somehow got reset to R1.

In a nutshell, we ended up operating with two R1 stations on the network 
for several hours without actually noticing the problem which resulted 
in violating of the M/2 band-change rules.  Being new at Win-Test in 
multi op environment, embarrassingly enough we did not take notice for a 
long time :-). 
When Paul had found out what is going on, he changed the offending PC 
back to RUN2 and things returned to normal. 

We also noticed that neither computer in the network would retain its 
R1/R2 designator when restarting win-test.     When we tested this on 
some other computers running Win-Test we were unable to replicate the 
problem.

73,  Nick
