[WriteLog] Writelog and CW contesting for the CW challenged

[Jerry Flanders]

I used the "other" CW decoder display a couple years ago in a CW contest 
just as a test and was SURPRISED at how well it could copy. Often, if I 
missed something I could just glance at the display and there it was, 
decoded better than my brain had done! I don't remember how I got it to 
work, so can't offer any help setting it up. I plan to get into CW 
contesting when I get a round tuit, and expect it will help when I do.

You can't just "click" on calls there, as I recall (?).
