[WriteLog] rtty DE CALLSIGN not highlighted

I think I have discovered one instance where
rtty callsigns, even though preceded by DE,
are not highlighted.

The following applies only to stations who are
NOT in the .dta database:

If a station sends the NEWLINE character,
then DE W1XYZ W1XYZ, W1XYZ will not be highlighted.
So if you have your callsign message buffer set up
as
%RDE W1XYZ W1XYZ %R%E  - W1XYZ will not be highlighted

If the buffer is
%R DE W1XYZ W1XYZ %R%E  (with a space before DE), then
W1XYZ will be highlighted just fine.

So, the moral of the story is, don't send
%RDE CALLSIGN

Instead, send
%R DE CALLSIGN

Or, just precede the DE with a space, and forget the %R

Maybe Wayne can fix this behavior.
