[WriteLog] Super Check Partial Slowing Down for big Logs

[halken]

For all interested in this, it's easy to make very large logs for 
testing.  Just open a log and then start importing more logs.  I have a 
few 7K QSO logs from M2 and M/M trips I have been on.  I just import two 
or three of those onto the end of something open.  You can quickly make 
a log of almost any size this way...
