- Keep the ``Add Record`` dialog window open after a new QSO is added, in preparation for the next QSO.
- Pin-point the user's QTH on the world map by specifying the latitude-longitude coordinates (or looking them up based on the QTH's name, e.g. city name).

Hamlib support
--------------
PyQSO features rudimentary support for the `Hamlib <http://hamlib.sourceforge.net/>`_ library. The name and
path of the radio device connected to the user's computer can be
specified in the ``Hamlib`` tab of the preferences dialog. Upon adding a
new record to the log, PyQSO will use Hamlib to retrieve the current
frequency and mode that the radio device is set to and automatically fill in the
Frequency and Mode fields.

World Map
---------
The user can pin-point their QTH on the world map by specifying the latitude-longitude coordinates (or looking them up based on the QTH's name, e.g. city name) in the ``World Map`` tab. Maidenhead grid squares can also be rendered, with worked grid squares shaded, which is particularly useful for satellite operating.

The world map tool (see figure:world_map_) can be used to plot the QTH of your station and stations that you have contacted. It also features a grey line to check which parts of the world are in darkness. The position of the grey line is automatically updated every 30 minutes.
The user's QTH can be pin-pointed on the map by specifying the QTH's location (e.g. city name) and latitude-longitude coordinates in the preferences. If the `geocoder <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/geocoder>`_ library is installed then these coordinates can be filled in for you by clicking the lookup button after entering the QTH's name, otherwise the coordinates will have to be entered manually.
