[WriteLog] Highlighted Calls

[Suzieb]

The call highlighting appears to working okay for now.
I found out when you uninstall the software, the update files are not 
good enough to reinstall! Thanks to Steve he sent me the link and the 
reinstall went very well.  I noticed that "Scan for DE" was checked and 
I checked out putting call signs in and after hitting space at least one 
time the call would highlight.  Unchecked Scan for DE and the calls 
would still highlight.  I will leave it checked for now.
Thanks to all that helped to get it running and hopefully we will see 
you all in the WPX Test.
