[Fred Laun K3ZO]

The QRP definition depends on the contest. The ARRL uses
PEP, so its 5 watts PEP in the HF contests and 10 watts
PEP in the VHF contests.  However, the QRP-ARCI, and most
other QRP clubs, use 10 watts PEP as the limit on SSB and
5 watts on CW.  The CQ VHF contest defines QRP as 25 watts 
or less.
