[CQ-Contest] Cut numbers

[Dick-w0raa]

I had several stations send me a NN for their power.  I assumed they were running 99 watts and that's how I logged it.  Was I right or wrong?  

Maybe a way to solve this cut number crap is to have 3 categories and only 3 acceptable ways to send it.  As an example:  

L = Low Power (no more than 150 watts)
H = High Power (Over 150 watts)
Q = QRP (10 watts or less)

It's irritating as can be to have to figure out what someone is sending because they made up their own cut number macro or whatever.  Like the AK that was being sent.  Why not K or KW?  Is that extra character going to make a huge difference?  I really doubt it, except maybe to the purists.
