[Elecraft] OT: The use "QRP"

[lstavenhagen]

Interesting. I've always felt the other way about QRP stations - they're more
attractive for me to work because of the novelty of their using low power
and the probability that their operating skills are better due to the
challenges of working QRP. So, when I hear a stations sign /QRP I'm usually
more inclined to try to work them than less.

I'd also say the combo of both QRP _and_ a marginal antenna is really where
it gets hard to make QSO's. I've heard QRP contest stations that were the
loudest sigs on the band. They'll be running only 5 watts, but to a yagi
stack at 100' and coming in at 30 over S9 running stations for hours on
end.....
