[WriteLog] WriteLog ethernet

[Jim Brannigan]

I'm in a constant battle with RFI running 2KW in the shack.
 In the house there are four networked computers on a Linksys router and
separate Access point.  Two are on twisted pair and two on WI-FI.  Much to
my surprise, there has never been an RFI problem (In or  out).
One of the wired computers runs W/L, Logic and is connected to the radio.
