What is the proper way to fill out a QSL satellite card
Greetings All
I want to ask about the proper way to fill out a QSL satellite card . I did some research online and I was unable to find anything in regards to the rst reports . How do you do that ? Do you report 'O' like when you do EME moon bounce or you report 59 like when you making a regular contacts ?
Thank you, Yanko de KC9RDT
You fill out whatever you told the guy on the other end of the QSO when you gave him a signal report as part of the QSO. Something like "your 5 and 9 old man. Please repeat your call and location!"

If you need the guy on the other end to repeat his call and locator, he surely wasn't a 59. :)

59, just like a 'regular' contact.

Hello Yanko,
For VUCC satellite credit I want to see on the QSL card: 1. the word "sat", or "satellite", or the actual satellite like AO-40 2. The 4 digit grid of each of the QSO partners. 6 digit grid squares are OK too 3. Uplink and downlink frequencies or bands, eg 2M up, 70 cm down, U/S, V/U, etc. 4. the normal QSL info like call signs, date, time in UTC, 5. signal report: RST for CW (eg.599), RS for SSB/FM (eg.59) EME recognized signal reports would be OK for EME QSLs. 6. Multiple QSO's on a single card or sheet of paper are OK with all required info. If typed/printed I want to see the senders initials to authenticate Multiple QSO's on a label, on a QSL card are OK.

Stan,
What would you do with cards that only have the grid of the respondent? Living in South Dakota I get lots of QSLs, and my grid is well displayed on the card, but I have never bothered to look the other guy's grid up and put it on the card.
I figured he put his grid on his card and I put my grid on my card.....
