I plan to do a POTA activation soon and want to make sure I get credit for a QRP activation when uploading my log file. Is it correct to assume that as long as the TX power is filled out with 10 watts, POTA will recognize it when the ADIF file is uploaded?

As far as I’m aware, there are no special awards for activating QRP, so I don’t think there is anything to get “credit for” if you activate QRP (besides the normal activation.)

Please correct me if I’m mistaken (as I have done more QRP activations than not)!

Clayton you are correct. I was given bad information and came to the same conclusion after researching the POTA documents. Thanks for replying.
