As rich said... it's just my opinion... but I always consider data 
automatically pulled off any source suspect... for example grids are not 
reliable because the "calculated" grids are often based on the 
post-office location and, especially on VHF, operating from other than 
the home grid is common. If I have a grid in the log, I want to be sure 
I put it there. The same is true for other fields. The only way to be 
sure is enter the data yourself, that way you have a reasonable 
certainty it is correct.
