It's unnecessary in SS after the callsign anyway because it's part of the
exchange sent.
In VHF contests people sometimes ASK me if I'm QRP and I then say "Yes."
But that's different. And on 432 and above, I'm sometimes just as loud as
the people running high power. Hilltops are an advantage.
Maybe there SHOULD be a contest where the receiving station gets extra
points for working QRP stations.
