[TRLog] 6.21 observations from 9M6BG

After chalking up another 5k-odd Qs from 9M6, I have the following comments:

- Having sunrise/sunset ( or ascending/descending earthturn, depending on your
viewpoint) was a big improvement.  I did notice that it said sunrise in W5 was
at 1260z over the past few weeks, but nothing else odd cropped up.

- Not being able to use the QUESTION MARK CHAR or being able to see what is
typed as it is typed when using the TAIL END KEY continues to be frustrating
for challenged users/operators such as myself.

- While allowing multipliers in General QSO mode (so that the various
multiplier info windows could be used) would remain high on my wish list,
enabling the QSO INFORMATION WINDOW would be desirable in the meantime to help
one decide whether or not to entertain a band-hopping request from something
other than a TT8, 3DA0 or similar exotic DX.

- RESTART.BIN can really save your butt if one accidently erases files that
shouldn't be erased & no undelete-recovery utility is loaded on the computer.
An entire morning's effort on the low bands would've otherwise been lost if
it weren't for the power of RESTART.BIN - although it would be nice if POST
U S gave an output of the whole log (not just separate band/modes).
