[RTTY] "Slashed" Zeros vs. the number "Zero"

One workaround I had forgotten about is to set your font to FIXEDSYS. 
The number zero has a sort of squiggle in it which makes it distinctive 
from the letter O.  It's not exactly a slash, but there's no confusing 
the two.  There shouldn't be any problem with Cabrillo logs not 
recognizing the character as a zero.

FIXEDSYS has been around a long time, so if your version doesn't have 
the squiggle, update.
