[WriteLog] Sweepstakes packet spots window

If I recall, this has to do with the fact that you can only work
stations once in SS so QSO's or Mults on a per band basis don't matter.

I have only encountered this problem with Sweepstakes. The packet spots 
window offers two options. All Bands or Follow Me. I chose Follow Me but
it 
continued to show me spots for all bands. There was no difference
between 
All Bands and Follow Me. My frequency and mode were always correct on
the 
WriteLog display. Hitting a spot worked correctly taking me to the
posted 
frequency and changing bands if required. I prefer Follow Me when
running my 
amplifier. It helps me avoid cockpit error.

I do not have this problem with other contest modules that I have used. 
Follow Me always displays only those spots for the band that my rig is 
currently tuned to.

Do I have a defective plug-in? Am I missing a file?
