What award requires such a thing?
Sounds like that's an award not worth having if the sponsor has so little
trust and faith about whether the op was QRP becasue /QRP is not appended to
his call in the submitted QSL's. Pity....
On the other hand, I can recall getting a W5RRR card back (I'm the W5RRR QSL
Manager) from an op because I put SSB in the MODE box instead of A3J. Go
figure.
