AFIK sat Qs are not permitted. We were trying solely because someone we know needs EN27/28 for the AMSAT 488 grid award.

 We decided not to mess with grid lines and just set up in EN27at where 
  US Highway 59 crosses into EN27 near Brooks.
  
  Basically it was a very fruitless day with absolutely no propagation on 
  6 during the 4-1/2 hours we were there. We called CQ regularly on both 
  CW and SSB with zero results. The satellite passes we attempted resulted 
  in only partial exchanges and no QSOs in the log. Too bad because there 
  was one fellow on the last pass with SO-50 who sounded very excited we 
  were in EN27.
  
  We'll play a little from home tomorrow and maybe find someone who needs 
  EN18. :>)
