This will never work Tom.

How would an op know to claim qrp points for a qso?

A few folks on this list have been very vocal about QRP.

"I have no way to know what power the other station was running"

"I never put /qrp in the log"

"using /qrp is illegal"  (No...in the USA it's not.  Plus not all qrp
ops answer to the FCC)

Life's to short...",  yada, yada, yada...

These great ops the feel QRPers are the scum of the earth would never
stand for this Tom.
