This year in CQ 160 SSB I enjoyed sending the /QRP, just to have people
say "you can't be QRP, you're S9+"  My usual reply was "it is amazing
what 5 watts into a 160  four square can do."

Definitely lets go for a QRP category (whether /QRP is sent of not) as it
will add a new option for people to play in and might bring a few new
players to the events.
