Hi Brian,
I use my TS-930-AT for most of my QRP work from home. I like having
a good RX with lots of filters.
And I like being able to turn up the power if I want to continue a
QSO when condx dictate.
No mater what you do, someone could complain. What is to keep you
from using a QRP rig into amps?
People who are going to cheat, cheat! Those that don't, don't!
I've got a lot of better things to do than worry about what others
might think if I do this or that!! I just do things so that I can
sleep at night.
Isn't there a saying from the good book about ....'to your own self
be true'......??
Enjoy, cul,
