It works the other way as well. There are often other weak signals in
the pileup, either due to marginal antennas or poor propagation or being
off the side of the pileup operator's beam. An op signing "/QRP" makes
it sound like he thinks he should get special treatment when in fact

This is something that the Oman Radio Society asks all members to do for a
month starting on "National Day" (Read 4th July)
What a pain in the a**e !!! for example "a45wg/ND48" (National-Day 48th
Year). It is totally meaningless for 99% of all hams.
I like the /qrp if they truly are qrp

["I'm aloft"] is also non-compliant since AM belongs to Spain. /R ["I'm

"How about "stroke 7" or "slant 7"?"
I verbalize k3wyc/7 as k3wyc slant seven. What I'm asking is - why don't
stations who are actually operating portable use "slant papa"? I'm suggesting
that the reason may be that "portable" is so extensively misused.

Seem like much to do about nothing.
How about "stroke 7" or "slant 7"?
If I didn't need to get more QSLs with the call, I would use N7WS/60 this year,
for my sixtieth year in ham radio.
Here's what the FCC thinks about the subject:
"In addition to the special event call sign system, any

Yes, one never knows for sure until one makes contact and asks. If
precision matters, K3WYC/QRP/SIXEL/75FT is compliant with 47CFR97 and
would cover all those bases. [:-)

And sometimes it means someone running 5 W to a 6 ele Yagi at 75 ft! That
station has far higher ERP that I do running 100 W with my modest antennas.
If I was portable in UK, where
Perhaps it depends on the type of operating you're doing. In a contest no
one cares how much power you are running they just want to copy your
callsign and report as quickly as possible. Sometimes "QRP" is the only
thing that is copiable and it becomes frustrating that the QSO cannot be
completed
/QRP often, but not always, indicates a field operation, and they're
sort of fun to work, at least for me. Having survived trying to move to
AM in the mid 50's as a teenager and finding out the OT's did not like
the invasion they said we were creating ["End of Ham Radio As We Know
It"], I
Well, when I started working QRP I decided never to sign /qrp, but at least
once I wished that I had.
Martti, OH2BH, was on 20 phone and there was a gigantic pile. Finally he
started working by call areas, and when he came to the Zeroes, I finally
got my call through. So far, so good -- but he
Well, you're close Grant, probably close enough. The Strawberry Full
Moon in June was on 28 June at 0453 UTC. The Buck Full Moon will occur

"Full Moon,," come from. If the Sturgeon Full Moon comes with a fish, I

I have found that signing "QRP" is more effective on SSB than it is on
CW. But it depends on the attitude of the listener at the other end.
