Hello:
   First, thank you for the excellent WSJT-X software!
   A low-priority feature request:
   In logging contacts, it is customary to record Maidenhead Grid in the format AA99 where the first two characters are upper-case alpha.  (In the full format of AA99aa99, only subsequent alpha characters are lower-case.)  Since logged information in WSJT-X is frequently exported to other loggers, it would be a user convenience if the input edit process would automatically fold the first two characters to upper case.  See the first ADIF example below where the grid square is in lower case format.   Lastly, if there is a preferred mechanism for feature requests, please point me in that direction.
 Many thanks and 73,

Hi Neil,

thanks for picking up this issue. As we already have a grid square validator that enforces the canonical case for Maidenhead grid locators I have added that to the "Log QSO" window grid entry field. That will have the desirable side effect of fixing up the case as you correctly express above.
