After posting the question, I looked at the TQSL dialog for the (n+1)th 
time and found the answer myself: the dialog behaves differently in the 
Certificate (callsign) list and in the Location list.

In the Certificate list the first entry is automatically highlighted - 
if that's the one you want, you *don't* have to click on it. But even if 
that certificate has only one valid Location, it's not automatically 
highlighted. You *do* have to click on the Location to highlight it - 
and then the OK button is activated.

What fooled me was that the Help file describes these two different 
behaviors in the same way: "you select". No big deal... once you know 
about it.
