[TRLog] Arghh. Halp. Need something entirely new from TR.

Ahhh...duh. I get it. You know sometimes even the simple solution is not
obvious. I still have to give this one some thought. I guess CQ/###
would still have to show up if you were alone there. The way it works
right now to add this feature I think all I need to add is the marker
which would track LASTCQFREQUENCY and a warning when a conflict occurs.
