Yes, Simon is describing what I had in mind - a software solution that can be implemented in the near future. Lacking such an RS-232 server program, we're left only able to run one CAT-capable program at a time. Unless your contest logging program implements its own version of cw skimmer or clickable panadapter etc, we won't have these capabilities unless software that will arbitrate access to the serial port from multiple programs is available.
