[WriteLog] WL cursor etc. problems

[DJ3IW Goetz]

Thanks for all the advice given, the solution for these 
problem was found. It's really simple. My .ini had an 
entry under Configuration  - ShowCountry=0  to remove the
(for me) unneccessary fields COUNTRY and C in the WL entry window.
Removing this entry or setting it =1 solved the problems.
