Has anybody found a way to upload satellite contacts to a QRZ log and have them easily be confirmed? The glitch seems to be that QRZ.com wants the transmit and receive frequencies to be the same, it does not seem able to accept QSOs that were made duplex. Thanks!

You need to log a sat qso with propagation mode SAT, uplink freq at the satellite(some are using the transverters IF freq which is not allways the same) the sat-name, the mode... If it's logged without the SAT propagation mode, it looks like a terrestrial contact, and that's a huge difference. It's very important for award hunters.
So you need to use a good logging program. There would be much more matches in LOTW, EQSL etc. if people upload correctly. More than 20% of received online qsl is rejected on my side due to incorrect logging. Using here VQlog for years without any problems so far. I'm not aware of any other good sat-logging software, but of course there will be good ones too.

The problem I am having with QRZ.com is most people use other logging software that migrates or populates into QRZ.com. However, if you log your QSO's on QRZ.com, people who use LoTW don't like to upload QSO's on QRZ.com and want only LoTW, even though the they have a QRZ.com account.
