[Dxbase] something that maybe DXB can correct

I just saw a DX spot come in.
It correctly spotted the stations frequency but it listed the LISTENING frequency 
abbreviated.
TJ3FR 24903.0    QSX 905.5

Now my brain tells me that the QSX was really 24905.5 but DXB sees it literally and set my 
VFO B to 905.5

Last time I checked,,,only freebanders could operate there. :-)

So would it be possible for DXB to realize this is an abbreviated QSX and make the guess 
that it should be on the same band as the spotted frequency?

Actually this happens not a lot...but often enough and more often during contest weekends.

Would this add decoding/processing time?
