I gotta say, I doubt just changing modes will change the habits of the masses. Clever idea. I like it. Can't wait to read other opinions. > A QRP day might encourage those ... experiment with different modes... I'd have to nod my head in agreement on that one. My favorite times on-the-air are with low power. One can really do a lot more if you don't need much. I've had nights where a few of us would stimulate some air around us and run through a dozen modes. On 1/2 a watt. Meanwhile, I'm guessing the hobby has it's up and downs in activity. I'm new, but betting we live our hobby on 11-year cycles. f, k2ncc
