What if I had my gain up, and could not tell the signal? Or,  what if I 
were using a homebrew rig, or if my S-meter was not working??  Not deceptive at 
all!

Thank you,  Steve.

And it's not like he's asking for something new.

Here it  is in my 1954 FCC Part 12 Rules and Regs.....

§ 12.158.  False signals.  No licensed radio  operator
shall transmit false or deceptive  signals or communications
by radio.

An  inflated RST is certainly a false/deceptive signal, I'd say.  Then 
again,  
I 'spose so are my variable CK reports in  SS.
