I don't know of ONE award (I'm speaking of ARRL awards now) that requires the
QSL to have /qrp on it, Carl...can you state one instance of that being a
requirement???
I have QRP WAS and WAC and none of my QSL cards have a /qrp identifier anywhere
on the card......I hope to have QRP WAS on 160 meters completed this winter and
none of the QSLs sent to me list me as K9JWV/QRP...in fact, from an LoTW
perspective, having a station I worked list me as K9JWV/QRP probably puts that
record into the "zombie status."
