Either edit it with the Alt-E editor - or use the Alt-T command
and the Alt-1 to Alt-0 keys.  See the manual chapter on entering
a paper log.

This is best done during the contest where you can insert a special
character in your exchange and enter the strength of the RST then.
It will be sent automatically and entered into the log.  Otherwise,
you only option is the Alt-E editor (or up arrow with a blank call
window).

500m is what you would enter.  1R5 for 1.5 watts.
