Here's a bit o' Perl code that could help with that:

#!/usr/bin/perl
$prefix = "# #";
while (<>)
{
     if (/^#/)
         {
             chop;
             $prefix = "$_";
         }
     else
         {
             print "$prefix # $_";
         }
}


Input is an xastir log file, output looks like

# Mon Aug 30 08:06:03 CDT 2004 # KG4WSV-4>APX133,WIDE:=/<veN8W:)x   
XASTIR-Darwin

Any lines before the first date comment won't have a timestamp prefix.
