I was AD8DY and now have the callsign KX8K. I requested the callsign change to my account on eham.net as I'm supposed to do, but the code to do that in the system here either doesn't work or the site doesn't maintain a current copy of the FCC callsign database to compare with.
Apparently, the previous ham who had my callsign and let it expire in 2019 had accounts on various ham sites. All but one so far required manual intervention on the part of the site administrators. (The D-Star registration site automatically updated my account for me!).
I've repeatedly requested the change to my account using the change callsign feature on my account page but am informed that the callsign is already taken. It was taken at one time, but now I have it, so it's not taken by anyone else and should allow me to transfer my new callsign to my account.
What else needs to be done other than emailing the webmaster here, which I did today?
This must have happened before and must have a solution.
