I have a friend who has a remote station just several miles outside of the county limits Grid EM57 (Home QTH) and is now EM56 at his remote location. However, he has his QRZ Information updated noting that his station is now at the remote site in EM56.

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.

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...

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: 2018-12-02,13:53:45,2018-12-02,13:54:45,DS4NPL,PM35,7.074300,FT8,+01,-15,,, 2018-12-02,14:01:45,2018-12-02,14:03:15,JG1ULT,PM95,7.075050,FT8,-10,-12,,, 2018-12-02,14:11:45,2018-12-02,14:12:45,KQ6K,,3.575100,FT8,-03,-03,,, 2018-12-02,14:32:15,2018-12-02,14:33:15,JA2ATE,,3.573600,FT8,+02,+02,,, 2018-12-02,14:49:15,2018-12-02,14:50:15,HR1LW,,14.075094,FT8,-10,-17,,, 2018-12-02,14:51:00,2018-12-02,14:52:00,PJ2DD,FK52,14.075717,FT8,-08,-04,,, 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?
