I'm not a QRP fan for DX. However, one can definitely copy a weaker signal with JT65. No matter how much power you have, you can't work them if you can't copy them. It seems like the magic combo is 1500 W and JT65 on both ends. I think guys are resorting to this on 160M to try and squeeze out a new one or two.

The five minutes or so per QSO is a bummer though.

I find an 8877 provides about 22 dB SNR over ten watts. :-)
