I wonder if anyone has an idea why this is going on: I entered the callsign
"TZ4AM" into the main window on DX4WIN, and it told me the heading was 143
degrees. I'm in Minnesota, so this is obviously incorrect for TZ. But if I
enter any other TZ call, it tells me the heading is 78 degrees, which I
believe is correct. Why would it show an incorrect heading for a specific
call?
DX4WIN probably inherited a grid square (or IOTA ?!?) from a previous
QSO with TZ4AM.
Yeah, it looks like TZ4AM incorrectly loaded his LotW configuration with
FK52 instead of the IK52 grid, which puts him in the Aruba area. I still
don't understand why LotW doesn't implement some elementary
configuration verification checks, at least for zones and such.
