It wasn't clear if satellite QSOs are allowed.  Does anybody know for sure?

The web page at http://www.arrl.org/international-grid-chase-2018 says:

Satellite contacts count. Contacts made through earthbound repeaters do not
count for the Grid Chase, but repeaters in outer space are the exception.
There are low-orbiting satellites that support CW, SSB, and even FM
contacts. See the AMSAT-NA website at www.amsat.org.

Cheers!

Kevin.
