[John Nogatch <608718@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It appears that someone started modifying xlog's GUI, changing the
naming convention, but that these changes were not propagated into the
"Keyer" window, which is what is used in contest mode.

1. The reported problem was that hitting \r in the RX(RST) field of the
main window, while keyer window is active, caused a crash. It was trying
to pass a string to a callback which expected an int. I suspect that it
was originally a string, & had been changed to int, but 2 places had
been missed. Changing it back to string avoids the problem.

2. gtk error messages were appearing. Again, it appears that the name of
a menu item had been changed from "Add" to "Write", but the keyer
interface had not been updated to use the new name.

3. Entering a callsign, \r, fills in the RST fields, & hitting another
\r failed to log the contact. Sending "clicked" to the "/ToolBar/Write"
widget was not working, but did not cause an error message. Changing it
to send "activate" to "/MainMenu/Edit/Write" allows the QSO to be logged
correctly. I see many other places where "clicked" is used, but I do not
know whether they are correct or not.

4. I observed that hitting \r in the RX(RST) field while no callsign is
filled in caused an invalid QSO to be logged. An additional check has
been added to prevent logging a QSO without callsign.
