I assume the QSO did *not* have anything in the Grid field before you
imported the LoTW confirmations? Can you search your original log for
any QSOs logged with the grid square KM18ua? Similarly, are there any
QSO records in the LoTW report that have that grid square?
That is a real mystery! You may need to send your log to Paul
(pre-import, along with the LoTW report) so he can investigate how
this could happen.
I will be doing an import soon, and I'll keep an eye out for this problem.
