The other night I went out to my truck and turned on my radio. I was listening to a conversation when I heard the operator say that he was located about 200 miles from me and was running qrp at 100 milliwatts. I could not believe that I could hear him as well as I could. Apparently he runs qrp all the time as this was his second conversation with one of the operators in the three way conversation.
Made me stop and think what a thrill it would be to operate QRP all the time. I thought that most QRP operators were using CW, but this guy was using voice on 40 meters. There are so many different interest in amateur radio that no one could be bored of trying all the new things. Just wanted to share the story and let the reflector know that I have changed my mind and am looking forward to QRP as well as RTTY and DX.
