[wt4hq] Tunnel for WT4

[ct1ilt at sapo.pt]

Hi again guys,

Today I tested the Tunel again and it worked pretty well.

There is something that is bothering me which is about the sync.
I made several tests and I concluded the same on all of them, when  
there is something wrong with one station, for example the Tunel shuts  
down or DSL goes down, that particular log will only sync when all the  
other stations enter a qso, and if that particular station logged qsos  
while the DSL connection was down, the sync will only happen when it  
logs a qso.

Shouldn't the sync act right when it recovers DSL connection? why do  
we need to enter a qso on the other stations for it to sync? and vice  
versa?

Anyone experienced this?

I am using V3.27HQ and tried both Server 2.3 and 2.2 same thing happens.

Thanks Filipe CT1ILT
