My intent with the question was to learn something, not to initiate

Since there are QRP awards the QSL's have to include/QRP to be accepted.

There are more illegal QRO ops than the few who cheat with /QRP so quit with

the silly bickering.

How would you like it if the shoe was on the other foot?
