Distance always goes with metric

Greetings all,

I have a QRZ subscription. when I type in a call sign to start a QSO log, the distance shows fine with miles. When I save that QSO, It always reverts back to metric and I have to go back and edit my log as the metric mileage always goes into my log. Looking at my settings on setting1, I have my correct username/password in QRZ and is checkmarked and also the show distance in miles is checkmarked. anything I need to change so I don't have to edit each log to show the correct miles instead of metric?

We use the ADIF specification which is as follows

DISTANCE - the distance between the logging station and the contacted station in kilometers via the specified signal path

Selecting miles is only for certain displays in Log4om, your data when saved is conforming to the international format - KM
