Dear Howie,
    Don't worry about the milliwatt.  Yes, the logging programs roll it to 1
(for 1 watt).  The robot will work it out.
There seems to be confusion regarding the 1000 watt indentifier as well.
Using the common   k, kw, 1k, 1000 will all work.  As far as the RST it must
be 59 or 599 (no abbreviations).
    Hope that answers your question.  Thank you for your email.
 
73,
Kathy Allison, KA1RWY

Hi Dan-

I might as well get the answer on this for next year..

A few qrp'ers gave us their milliwatts. Being an impatient soul, I quickly
logged as 1.

Technically, they should be logged as 0.1, 0.5, whatever.

How would you like us to log these (*&^%*& folks ?

73, Howie

What Guys said is accurate (of course). On the TRLog reflector Tree said

that the log chk program would convert all K and KWs to 1000 and then

proceed.  I have no idea what is to be done with the 100mw entries we

occasionally got.  73.
