Hi George,

I'm not one of those card checker guys, but I recently had my own QSLs checked
for VUCC, and one of them was rejected by the checker. Reason: The QSO had taken
place with a mobile-in-motion station, and the guy had written two grid square
numbers on the card. Even though the checker understood the reality -- i.e.,
that the guy had been moving and was in two different grid squares over the time
period that I was in QSO with him -- he said that the card was invalid because
(using programming terminology here) only one "argument" can be specified on the
card for each "parameter."

So based on this, I would say that the answer is probably no, the card is not
good. My opinion only... You would really have to ask the guy who is going to
check your cards.  :-)
