[WriteLog] Contest bugs

Scott,

No.

Spots in the CW portion of the band show up in red, so you know immediately
not to click them.

Writelog was putting the spots into the correct frequency positions on the
bandmap, so I assume it was getting the frequency ok.  Clicking these,
either in the spot window or on the band map should QSY the rig to the spot
frequency.

However, the rig was not QSYing.  I know the program was reading the rig ok
since the correct radio frequency was showing up in the freqency box.   I
also switched VFOs, and it still happened.   I have worked many contests in
the past where this function worked perfectly.

Suggestions welcome.

Jim    W4LC
