I suspect John, GM4SLV, and Steve AA4AK are quite right about many responses to those signing /QRP.
I always perk up when I hear /QRP because it promises to be an unusually interesting contact. When I call CQ on or near a QRP "calling frequency" such as 7040 or 14060 I use 5 watts or less and sign /QRP myself. I hope the intrepid operators who love to promote their operating interests will never stop signing /QRP. If someone considers a QRP signal as unworthy of his or her time, that's their choice and I'm happy to help them avoid being "ambushed" by an unrecognized QRP signal just because it happens to be pounding in nice an strong at their end.
