Not only should QRP stations get a power multiplier, but anyone working them should get bonus points for the QSO. The result would be that everyone digs deeper into the noise to hear the QRPer. To know if any of your QSOs merit bonus points, stations in the QRP category could identify themselves in their exchange by adding "Q" to the RST, i.e., "599 Q ......"
