Half of this can be cured by turning CALLSIGN UPDATE ENABLE = TRUE.
This will fix your log entry.  However, TR will still send the 
callsign that is in the call window instead of the "correct" call
in the exchange window.  

To send the correct call, you will need to edit it in the callsign
window as TR hasn't totally sorted out the exchange window contents
before sending the exchange.
