[WT-support] Speed jumps up occasionally & RBN spots problems

[Adi S55M]

With latest WT version and LPT CW interface i didn't noticed any speed jumps 
in CW @ 9A1P.
The speed of CW keying during ctest was almost all the time set between 34 
and 40 WPM.

Most anoying thing during ctest was RBN spots overwriting and deleting them 
from bandmap! A serious issue, when you try to catch as many MTP as is 
possible.
