[WriteLog] Feature requests

[Darren Collins (G0TSM)]

No I didnt know about Fkeys so will look into that, although the 
screenshots on Keith's website appear to show what I would like.

If I click on an 'un-highlighted' call it appears to end up in the 
'Country' field when using the DXPedition module. I'll try this again 
later tonight on my main station.
