Configuration
Run pysatadif once. Then see $HOME/.pysatadif/defaults.json
You may configure your callsign, maidenhead grid square, radio, and transmitting power which will apply to all passes. You may override these at any time by using the command-line switches.
Hints
If the QSO was made on the current UTC day, you may leave out the QSODATE parameter. If the QSO was made during the current UTC year, you may leave out the YYYY.
You may enter callsigns and grids in lower case, and they will be converted to upper case.
If you copied the other station's grid square, be sure to add it: -q N0CALL,AA00. If you don't have it, leave the comma and following out.
