Finally, some guidance on entering multiple grids into a TQSL
"Location".  Stolen from http://www.arrl.org/vucc

Apologies if this has been posted before!


LoTW and Grid Squares

Your grid square is identified in your station location in TQSL.  It
is not part of your certificate.  To add or change your grid square
(or US State and County) simply edit your station location.  If you
operated from a grid boundary or corner you can add up to four
adjoining grids to one station location by separating the grid with a
comma.

Example: DM76, DM75, DM86, DM85

You must have the latest config file to do save multiple grid locators.

Download the config file

1.     Log into your LoTW user account

2.     Select YOUR ACCOUNT

3.     Select YOUR CERTIFICATES

4.     Select DOWNLOAD LATEST CONFIG FILE

5.     Save the file to your folder or desktop.

6.     Double click the file and it will install itself.

Edit a Station Location


1.     Open TQSL (not TQSL CERT)

2.     Select STATION > EDIT LOCATION

3.     Fix the zones, grid and any other information.

4.     Finish at the end.

5.     Now you can sign your log and upload again.  The old geographic
information will be overwritten by the new.
