Nothing computes a distance when a QSO is logged. The DISTANCE field is only
ever filled by an ADIF import that carried one, so publishing it straight gave
an empty column to anyone whose log was made in OpsLog — which is everyone who
reported it.
It falls back to the two locators, which are on the QSO already. A stored
distance still wins: it came from the log that recorded the contact, which knew
more than two four-character squares do. No grids means an empty cell, not a
zero — an empty cell is honest, a zero is a claim.
Rounded to whole kilometres. The squares are tens of kilometres across and a
decimal would assert an accuracy nobody has.
The geometry moved to internal/geo on the way. It lived in package main, which
internal packages cannot import, so the PSK Reporter watcher already had its
maths injected from main and this would have been a third copy. A bearing that
disagrees with itself between two panels is a fault nobody reports, because each
screen looks perfectly plausible on its own.
