Having trouble with PSK Reporter showing my location in Oregon when I am in California etc.

Dear Philip,

Having trouble with PSK Reporter showing my location in Oregon sometimes, when I am actually in California at the time etc. My GRID or LOCATOR  is CM99kf. My Callsign is WA6TWJ David Mauldin Rough and Ready, CA. USA. 

Thanks for you help in advance.

P.S. Sometimes it just doesn't show me at all on the map. Not sure why? Please advise.

I've seen some weird things too Dave. When I first started using PSKReporter, I was showing up in the ocean between NC and Bermuda. I found that I had garbage characters in the locator info in FLdigi. I fixed that. I don't recall what they were.

My home QTH is EL87rg, Sarasota, Florida. I am currently portable in Newburyport, MA, FN42nt. After I fixed it, I was still showing up in the ocean, but I noticed that the locator on the map said I was: FM42mt, somehow the "N," and "n" were being translated as "N," and "n."  Last night when I was on 40M, I didn't show up at all. Haven't solved it yet, just commenting on what I'm seeing, you're not alone.

Last night everything was working correctly. I was located in Newburyport, MA, which is as it should be. All is good.
