Just adding "OQRS" to the "QSL Via" would wipe out the "the promise of the next upgrade would be free" for me. It has been so long ago, I did not even remember that.
And also making it where it does not auto-populate the "QSL Via" fields with past information. Just because I QSLed a station direct last year, does not mean the QSO I completed 15 seconds ago should also be marked "Direct" or any of the other choices, it should default to "None" until manually updated.
