[WriteLog] Help: No Mult for TO9A

[Barry]

There were a bunch of BAD contest calls.  For example:
9A15DX (aka 9A1HDX)
YT0TESLA (or something like that)
A lot of the new Swedish calls.

As soon as TESLA called me, I was expecting WL not to accept all those 
letters.  Fortunately, it did.

Despite the no-code trend, perhaps a CW proficiency test is in order to 
get DX spotting privileges during a contest :.)
73,
Barry
