No it won't. MM needs a space before and after something that 
resembles a callsign. It won't highlight anything in a pileup 
situation where all the callsigns are jumbled together. It is also 
very misleading with weak signals. For example, if K7WM calls me on 
backscatter and mmtty copies K7WO K7WN K7WM, N1MM will highlight all 
three callsigns. Writelog will highlight only K7WM. Eureka! It's 
Wayne!
