FT never gives my grid in my CQ
And I am operating in Finland from several grids, like KP20, KP13, KP30 etc.
in QRZ.com there is a place only for one grid.

In LoTW the grid is OK.

Bill,

I’m confused. Why does remote operating affect the grid? I operate remotely all 
the time. I operate from my kitchen, my living room, patio, etc. I’ve also 
operated from China and Dubai. But in all cases, the station is in my house in 
Plano, Texas... in grid EM13oc. The grid square never changes. Why does it 
matter where the operator is located? The only thing that is important is the 
location of the radio. 

On a slightly different topic... I’ve noticed that some people don’t keep 
QRZ.com updated. The grid they give you during the contact doesn’t match what’s 
on QRZ. So filling in missing grids can be risky.

  In the round up, grids are only present in the CQ message.  So if someone 
ANSWERS your CQ, you do not get their grid... 

  I plan to look these up and add then the the log....

  But, at least 1 Q was with someone using a remote station via internet, so 
his grid will remain unknown...

    I'm an FT8 newbie - made my first QSO with this mode less than a week ago.  
The below problem may have been discussed before and I apologize if I missed 
it.  Anyway, I notice that both my LOG and ADI files are randomly missing grid 
squares.  Here's my last 6 QSO's, all made today:

    3 of the 6 grid square information is missing, in spite of the fact that it 
was definitely sent to me.  This group was with 1.9.1.  I also had 16 QSOs in 
the Roundup with 2.0.0 RC5 . . . 2 of the QSOs do not have grid information in 
the LOG or ADI file.

    Is this a known problem?  Will these missing grids cause me any problems in 
the future?

    Tnx & 73,
    Bill  AA4M
