Edit Frequency or remove Park or SOTA refs

It is impossible to totally remove a park reference from either WWFF or POTA reference boxes.
Backspacing all the contents results in the first letter re-appearing or being re-inserted when the box or QSO is re-saved.
Editing a frequency also requires significant patience to avoid the first numeral in the box bouncing back in front of the newly edited/inserted frequency.

I had this experience on the “Notes” field. Had added a word for testing purposes to a QSO and could not delete the content completely afterwards. Had written then 1 space to store something invisible, but I don’t bring away this “Notes” entry.

It looks like this behavior is quite general for data entry lines. I had it today in Operation Details where I wanted to delete my Notes.

I had it in the Export Settings where I wanted to empty that line that is displaying the reports as a standard. It is impossible to have that blank with no content.

It was a bit nasty today where I had entered their park reference in the SOTA summit box in the bright sunshine erroneously and could not delete it later to blank. Had to correct all ADIFs manually to cope.

Regarding updating the Frequency box: It is impossible for me to enter a correct frequency by using the special Polo “1234567890.” numbers line. At least the first number must be entered with the native keyboard 1-0 line.

And another funny one on this topic:

I had turned QRZ.com login off already some weeks ago since I don’t have a paid subscription. I had turned it on yesterday to try the name retrieval forth and back for this other topic regarding resolving names and displaying them in the ADIF export: Signal reports under comments - #22 by HB9DIZ

I then wanted go back and delete the QRZ.com login in the Polo settings. But I couldn’t! At least the first letter of my callsign and also the password remain stored and can’t be set back to “No Login”. It was possible earlier since I had it on when starting with Polo and had turned it off after reading about the difference between with and without subscription.
