<p class="MsoNormal">This sounds almost exactly like the message
you get when you have two computers on the network using
exactly the same station name (e.g., "STN1"). Every computer
on the Win-Test LAN must have a unique network name. This
must be configured at the bottom of the Contest Configuration
Screen (shortcut text command: REOPEN). An easy way to
create this problem is to copy the active .WT4 file from one
computer to another without changing the station name in the
file.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The station recording the QSO is also in
the .WT4 file. You can dump this information to a text file
using the WRITELOG text command. Just check "Text File" and
click the Options button. Then select "Station name" as one
of the fields to be written to the text file.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Remember that <i>every</i> computer on
the Win-Test LAN that is running Win-Test must have a unique
name, including "support" or "backup" stations that are not
logging any QSOs, and remote computers wired through some
type of private VPN.<o:p></o:p></p>

issue with WT 4.7 (XP on all 5 machines) in RDXC.
One station out of 5 in the network kept announcing
“Bad QSO identifier and network will be disabled” or
similar. It was a longer message and unfortunately I
did not copy it. Also said something about conflict
with some other station I guess. This was a RUN
station. So we had to RELOAD some 20+ times I guess
to get the network back up. This has not happened
before. Any reason this is happening in MS
configuration in MIXED mode serial number contest?
