You are correct, of course. I run QRP on 160m in the Stew Perry Topband 
Challenge, which rewards the stations working the QRP stations with 
additional points for putting in the extra receiving effort. In other 
160m contests I usually run at least 100w "just to make it fair" (about 
2 S-Units stronger signals).

Cheers,
