Logging a QSO for LY28A logs 0 km for the distance. From VE1, it should be logging 5753 km.
Typing the callsign in the entry window shows proper DXCC, bearing and distance, yet the distance is logged as 0 km. Distance logging has been working all along for other callsigns including other LY calls. I was using version 3.50.347 when I initially logged the QSO. The same problem also happens with version 3.50.351.
The LY28A callsign also shows up properly in qrz.com. Any other ideas as to why this is happening and how to get it working?

Jim,
Double checking shows that they are, of course, correct. Logging other stations was and currently still is working correctly. Distances and bearings in the entry window also continue to be correct. So far, just this one callsign. Even LY29A and LY280A work properly.
Here is what an exported ADIF shows. It is not exactly zero, but .04. While looking there, I also found one other QSO in my log that had this problem. Logging a test qso for that call also still shows the problem.
<DISTANCE:3>.04 <BAND:3>20M <CALL:5>LY28A <DISTANCE:3>.04 <BAND:3>40M <CALL:9>TI5/N4YDU
I have also tried recalculating statistics and restarting the program, but the issue persists. I am out of ideas as to where else to look. -- Gerald, VE1DT

Had you by chance imported those Q's from a different program
that doesn't compute distance? If so, L32 will not compute it for
you unless you did a manual, direct entry into L32. IOW, if you
imported an adif from N1MM into Logger 32 there would be no
distance calculated and associated with that QSO.

Apparently this problem has a mind of it's own. The LY28A callsign now works to store the distance. I tried different bands and different modes. I also tried logging a qso with the internet disconnected. However, nothing was conclusive. But I just tried it again now and it is working.
I also tried similar things that I did with the LY28A call with the TI5/N4YDU call, but it still resists storing the correct distance. So, I still don't know whether or not it was something I did or not.

Dan,
Good try, but not the issue here. These were directly logged in L32. When I import logs from my contest logger, the Distance field is left blank.
Actually, I wish L32 did compute the distance when I import logs. I would be happy if it just used the default DXCC distance from the prefix.
