Global Mapper v25.0

Problems importing from OziExplorer map file using British National Grid calibration references

Hi
I think this is a very similar to the problem https://www.globalmapperforum.com/discussion/4851/problems-with-irish-grid-ozi-map-file

When importing an Ozi .map file that has been calibrated using the British National Grid grid letters in the .map file rather than lat/long GM places the referenced raster in the "SV" square which is the most south west square of the BNG. It appears not to be interpreting the grid letters correctly from the .map file and is defaulting to the false origin of the BNG.
I attach a zipped .map file along with the referenced .jpg which is in the NM BNG square, opening it in GM places in the SV square.
Present in Global Mapper v20.1 and I think previous versions too.
Thanks
