I'm an *avid* QRP-er. Not transmitting so much, *receiving*. Nothing is quite as satisfying as being able to say "FB OM, SOLID CPY" to a whisper of a QRP signal.
So when I have several stations to choose from to call, the weakest is my first choice. If he/she is QRP, then I'll crank down the power to match. But I don't get upset if the other station needs me to QRO a bit for good copy. I like being able to run 100 watts for that reason and it makes the difference more often than not. After all, I'm generally using an Elecraft rig, so guess who has by far the best receiver? There are lots of us. I just happened to be an HF QRP-er. But there are lots on VHF too, running moonbounce and many other weak signal challenges.
