Actually, I never found a clear written rule regarding the format of 
such strings, to ensure which locator belongs to the spotted station (vs 
which locator is the spotter one).

If I had the assurance the "MyLocator<PropMode>HisLocator" format is 
always used, I could enhance the locator extraction.
