I have moved to a new location and new call sign. I have created a new profile. When trying to update that profile I keep getting an error saying I am inputting an invalid grid square. I am using DM79kp which I got from several sources. Everything else seems to update okay. But it won't save the new profile updates so my street address and other information is incorrect. HELP

George, Does the new call have the same street address? State? County? I think your Grid depends on your street address, so make sure that is correct first. You can change the last two letters of the Grid, but that's all. QRZ.com has a link to check your grid square based on your address, try that and see what you get. 73 Andy - n1ork

Thanks for your reply. I have a new address totally. I have moved to a different state. So I would have to change the whole Grid address. Any ideas?
Again thanks for your help

Make sure you make a new account for your new address, you can't just change your existing profile, because some hams may still send you eQSLs for QSOs made from your old location. Also make sure the end date of your old QTH doesn't overlap with the start date of your new QTH (address). After that is done, you can link (attach) the two accounts together for dx awards. eWAS will have seperate states. Are you still in Littleton, CO? Is that your new location? You did notify the FCC that you moved right? 73 Andy - n1ork

Thanks for your help. I will start a new account. Yep I am in Littleton, CO and that is my new QTH. I did notify the FCC. That is the reason I was changing my profile. I moved here from Illinois.
Again thanks for your help.
