I have noticed lately that when I send CQ on FT8 A few stations
respond with the signal report not their grid square.
Is there something here I do not understand?

Hi Tim,
there is no requirement to exchange grid squares for a valid minimal
QSO. Exchanging and confirming both callsigns and a signal report is
sufficient. Similar observations apply to sending an RR73 message when
copy is good enough for first-time decodes. Combining both techniques
allows the maximum QSO rate to be increased if desired.
