[WriteLog] Bug in CW Open by K0PC Module?

Rick,

Field width is set at the time the field name is created.  If the M field is 
only 2 characters wide it cannot be modified to be one character wider.  If 
you start all over and redefine all the fields in the module you can make 
the M field wider, but I'm not sure if the multiplier logic will still work 
so it may end up making the problem worse.

73,
Gary AL9A
