I'm running 2 sensors in the same place, because in future want to place one indoor and one outdoor, the question is, is possibile connect 2 sensors to the same PC ? and see 2 radioactive client/WUs run at the same time ?

No.

This is a part of anti-cheating solution.
So if you have more than one detector connected to PC, then only results from one are validated.

If we allow to connect few detectors to one machine than everybody be available to create "virtual" detectors very easy...

Also, using virtual computers should be not possible - I believe that works, as I have this tested some months ago...

Technically you can connect two sensors to one PC, however only one is seen by the app. It doesn't even try to find the other as it was never planned to support more than one for various reasons (like the one mentioned above).
