UT1MM - have worked him on 6 several times!  

I think the 160m guys use grid squares some also.

	Air mobile doesn’t count for a grid award.  To my knowledge, grid awards are only for six meters and above unless I missed something along the way.
	
	There is a Ukrainian who is on a freighter who is always giving out grids on six, sometimes two and 432.  Can’t remember his call at the moment.
	
	Steve,

You could likely take his stated position and pinpoint it yourself and if needed as a grid, tell him you are sending a card and please note his grid of XXOO on the card.
