Station Location
The Station location is used to store the active callsign and location details for
individual Logs and log datbaases.
The Staion Location details are used when each Log is loaded and are used for
various functions, e.g. QRB/QTF calculations, QSL label printing and
for LoTW automatic upload/download functions.
The Station Location can enable a registered user to have multiple Log databases
and preserve the registration details tied to their registered callsign.
N.B. It is NOT necessary to make a Station Location if using a single Log.
A Station Location can be created for each Log.
