[Elecraft] OT: The use "QRP"

[Ken Kopp]

There is a school of thought that says calling attention to 
the fact you're "QRP" when seeking contact with another 
station may well be counter productive.  

Some resent the implied expectation of special treatment, 
or sympathy for the "poor little QRP'er", and is usually of 
little interest ... or even annoying ... to the guy on the other 
end.

If you're the usual QRP'er that enjoys doing something with
less, there's no need to call attention to the fact that you're
"QRP", and then you can take satisfaction in knowing that 
you made the contact without invoking some degree of 
"sympathy" and / or special treatment.  Your signal report
is more likely to be "unbiased", too.  (:-))
