Tom,
I never sign callsign/QRP.
Information about your power level is not junk. It is information about a
contest category.
What is junk is the erroneous 59 or 599 signal reports during mist other

Tom, not exactly certain of your meaning of legal. But, 97.199 4(C)
Station Identification does allow for the addition of an "indicator" to
your FCC assigned call sign.

Hi Robb,
Please sign only your call- G0URR- without any other letters or

You do not need to sign /P so that the person knows you are QRP. What you
need to do is send in your log. The QRP bonus is given when doing the
cross checking automatically during the log check process.
So - signing /P does not good.
