I sort of lump the /qrp into the same category as the "baby on board" signs. I've never understood their purpose, but I figure they serve some pent-up need of the displayer.

If a station signs  <Callsign>/qrp
do they want me to log them that way?
This would be an issue if I use LOTW or E-Qsl

Just been on my mind!!

This has often been discussed on here and elsewhere. /QRP is not part
of any legal callsign, at least outside the USA. If a station sends
/QRP on his call or sticks it on the end of mine in a QSO it is
neither acknowledged nor put in my logbook or QSL card. You will find
that contest and dxpedition operators take the same view. When in a
pileup it is their callsign they need not the superfluous /QRP.

And I always say to people who ask, if you send /QRP you get a 449
report. If you don't send it you get 599 like everybody else.
