+On its first build, the user list is sorted alphabetically by complete callsign, ignoring letter case. New stations are inserted at the corresponding position. A sort subsequently selected through a column header is retained across new stations, data updates and filter changes. QRB is sorted numerically.
+
+Station selection is shared by the user list, PM, Public and QSO-of-the-other tables, priority display, AP timeline and map. A selection made in another view scrolls the user list to the chat member's current position and highlights the row. If a filter hides that station, it is temporarily added to the user list; the stored filters and exactly filtered map view remain unchanged. Callsign and chat category jointly identify the station.
 
 A callsign displayed in green and bold indicates a directional opportunity derived from a directed message. The marker applies to the sender of that message and remains visible for no more than five minutes. Derivation and limitations: [Directional Opportunities from Directed Messages](en-Features#directional-opportunities-from-directed-messages).
