If a person is truly stationary in one grid they can enter in almost any category except rover.

If a vehicle travels more than 500 meters they are no longer valid for any category except rover (General rules for all ARRL contests: http://www.arrl.org/general-rules-for-all-arrl-contests, "All transmitters and receivers must be located within a 500-meter diameter circle, excluding antennas").

But as a rover, they must activate at least two grids (General Rules for all ARRL Contest Above 50 MHz: http://www.arrl.org/general-rules-for-arrl-contests-above-50-mhz, " A rover consists of no more than two operators that moves among two or more grid squares during the course of a contest").

Best,
