I'm running WSJT-X on a PC (i7-9700 CPU @ 3GHz, 16G RAM, 512G SSD, running 
fully 
up-to-date 64bit Win 10 Pro).

The issue I'll describe below is one that I believe has existed for a while - 
it's certainly present 
in v2.3.1 and v2.5.0-rc3.  Here's the scenario, which is quite subtle and not 
easy to explain in 
straightforward terms...!  As far as I've been able to ascertain thus far, the 
issue exists for 
both FT4 and FT8 modes; I haven't (yet) been able to confirm if it also exists 
when using 
other modes such as MSK144.

I'm having a QSO with a station, let's say it's K1JT, and we have exchanged 
reports and I've 
received K1JT's RR73 and have sent a 73 in reply; at this point the QSO is 
complete and the 
prompt to log the QSO has come up and I've OK'ed the logging of the QSO.  Let's 
say the 
'Rpt Rcvd' figure that was received from K1JT and displayed in the appropriate 
box in the 
logging prompt window was -10.

At some point during the QSO with K1JT I was called by another station, let's 
say it's N8DX, 
who sent me his Tx2 message.  After I've completed and logged my QSO with K1JT 
I 
double-click on the N8DX callsign in the decoded Tx2 message, to start a QSO 
with him/her.

I conduct the QSO with N8DX; we exchange reports and our RR73/73 and eventually 
the 
logging prompt pops up again, but at that point I notice that the figure 
displayed in the 'Rpt 
Rcvd' box isn't the one that was in N8DX's Tx2 message - the 'Rpt Rcvd' figure 
is either the 
same -10 figure that was correct for my previous QSO with K1JT, or on some 
occasions the 
'Rpt Rcvd' box is completely empty.  In both of these cases I have to enter the 
correct 'Rpt 
Rcvd' figure into the box before OK'ing the logging of the QSO.

It would appear that in some circumstances, for example but perhaps not limited 
to starting a 
QSO by double-clicking on a received Tx2 message, the report-received figure 
isn't being 
picked up correctly from the received Tx2 message and hence isn't being 
displayed correctly 
in the 'Rpt Rcvd' box in the logging window, but instead the report-received 
figure from a 
previous QSO is being retained or the 'Rpt Rcvd' box is being left blank.  On 
quite a few 
occasions I've had to amend an entry in my logging app (Logger32) because the 
report-received figure transferred to the app by WSJT-X has been incorrect.

Has anyone else observed these anomalous figures being displayed in the 'Rpt 
Rcvd' box 
and hence logged?
