I have used the SS prefill a couple of times and have also had this
problem. AL9A(sk) did a great job creating and sharing the files. Unless
someone takes over this task I'll probably go back to not using prefill.

The SS module doesn't "fill from a previous QSO in the log" and the
argument for that behavior is that SS only allows one QSO with a given
station. The scenario described here indicates that, especially when
combined with the "prefill from ADI file" feature, it would be better
for the SS module to prefill from a prior QSO. I did a quick survey of
the single-band/single-mode contests (all I found was the ARRL and CQ
160m) that might have this same probelm and found they already do the
prefill. It appears only the ARRL SS should be updated.

Thanks for bringing this up.
