   I have had some (though by no means complete) success by preparing a QSL   
   for the other operator.  Just draw something up on your computer, the   
   way you'd design a QSL for your own station, fill it out as if it was a   
   card from the other guy, then mail it to him w/SASE & ask him to sign &   
   return if it's accurate.  That's how I got my first QSL from California   
   on 6.   
      
   But some people simply do not QSL.  (I think others don't reply at all   
   if their log indicates you did not, in fact, QSO.  One would *hope* they   
   would write "not in log" on your card & return it.)   
      
   I would have to concur that 6m return rates are not very good.   
      
   Caveat: I forget, what's your callsign?  I worked the June contest last   
   year from the mobile on the way to Wisconsin, and made a fair number of   
   QSOs from Kentucky.  If you worked me, the fact that QRZ.com says I'm in   
   Tennessee doesn't necessarily mean you worked Tennessee.  That operation   
   is also in LOTW.   
      
   My only 6m capability, in fact, is mobile.  It takes about a half-hour   
   to get across the state line from here.  If it were 40 meters, I'd be   
   delighted to run a sked - but of course on 6, the chances a sked would   
   work at any predetermined time are not very good!
