that page says that there are python scripts available, its
outside of WSJT-X, but uses the UDP messaging feature. You also
need a GPS puck, and install python on your system.
The directions are very clear. I don't know if it will interfere
with other programs like JT-Alert, but it sounds reasonable.

"/p" and other suffixes are optional here in the US too, and using them really messes up loading (for both the originator and responder) to LoTW.

In addition we can change the main station address on line and which I do for simplicity on the air. Consequently I rarely use a suffix and never on digital modes. The consequences of this for my call and anyone else in the UK is that only only our on the air locator is correct and anyone substituting this in this fashion will be wrong.

John - N7GHZ is correct. I've seen hundreds and hundreds of instances at QRZ in which the address is correct on the main page, but click on the "details" tab(where you find the grid info) and it shows the ham in a different state and county. This info is user configurable but many hams do not realize that, or that it is showing their wrong info. Even the hams with beautiful bio's at QRZ.
What this means is that if you are a subscriber at QRZ, the wrong county and possibly grid will be added to your logbook.
