 No disrespect intended towards anyone... 


But I miss the days when QRP meant no greater than 10.0 W output... and QRPp meant no greater than 1.0 W output.


Of course, this was also back in the days when I was running an Atlas 110 at 10 W output as my primary rig.  I don't want to think about how far back THAT was.
