>From rules:
4.2. (Class A - Battery) Club / non-club portable: Club
groups (or non-club groups with three or more licensed
amateurs) set up specifically for Field Day, all contacts
must be made using an output power of 5 Watts or less and
the power source must be something other than commercial
power mains or motordriven generator (e.g.: batteries, solar
cells, water-driven generator). Other provisions are the
same for regular Class A.

In the information setup, there was a choice of the three
power settings, 5 w, 150 w and 150 +; you should choose 5w,
this should set CT to add the proper points per QSO.
You would also qualify for Alternate power bonus.

Hope you had a good FD.
