Increased the width of QSO Points Per Hour display text fields from 3 digits to 4 digits to prevent truncation in certain RSGB contests. Thanks GØDVJ.

Added JetBrains Mono as a recognized monospace font.

When changing the Fixed Pitch Font in Logging preferences, previous style choices are now not changed unless the new font doesn‘t have the style; in those cases the style is set to Regular. See the updated Fonts and Colors topic in the Log Window section of Help.
