Locators and ADIF, LoTW import
Hi Jordi,

I have 2 related requests if I may (actually 3 thinking about it).

- When importing an ADIF file with 4digit locators (e.g. IO83), like from WSJT-X etc., could the distance be calculated, please? If I didn't do anything wrong, it does the calculation for full locators but not if only the first 4 digits are in the file.

- When importing QSLs from LoTW that have a Locator, could that update the Locator (and distance) of the QSO if it already has the first 4 digits and they match (e.g. IO83 in log and LotW QSL says IO83TK)? I think that was changed in 5.98 when the locator wasn't updated from LoTW if it was filled in the log.

The third one only appeared in the latest versions with multiple WSJT/JTDX programs.
- When a QSO is logged from one of the digital programs, it sets the Date/Time fields in the QSO Entry window to static (not real-time). It's very easy to forget to reset them to real-time when manually logging contacts afterwards - especially when switching modes often.

Many thanks for your consideration and all your hard work.
