Mike, K7MDL, noted this in the initial report:

"I first posted this to the WSJT-X dev list but this seems to be a more
proper place to file the bug. Also spoke with N3FJP about maybe removing
the comma on the AC Log side but that API is used with several apps and
could result in breakage, making the change here is the safest."

Just another one of those decisions that becomes painful to fix later
on.
