Hello,
Is there a solution to avoid importing field like locator from LoTW ?
For example, I would like to keep locator empty field (or with existing data), but not replaced by value coming from LoTW.
I don't see (in source files) the rule of which fields are replaced or not from import.
Thanks a lot,

HI Herve!
No, there is not that kind of selection.
How ever in case of locator and the use of wsjtx remote connection you do not have to worry about locator.
If the locator from Hamqth/Qrz is different than station is giving in wsjtx decode the wsjtx decode locator is used when qso is logged.
If wsjtx decode locator is same than in Hamqth/Qrz (by the first 4char) that one is used and then usually gives 5th and 6th char more to logged locator.
In other cases you just have to manually edit the locator.

Sorry!
Mixed the callbook usage and LoTW import.
But answer is the same, there is not that kind of selection.
ON the other hand, with quick check of fImportProgress.pas it looks like that if there is no locator in log it is filled.
If there is something it is not replaced.
if (grid <> '') and (dmData.Q.Fields[5].AsString='') then dmData.Q1.SQL.Add(',loc = ' + QuotedStr(grid));

Thanks Saku,
I see that cqz,ituz,iota,grid,state,county are imported from Lotw.
It could be great to have the option while importing to allow this.
I suggest it to wish list.
