Hi Chris

That's great, did you reduce power, you are still a good signal here, keep your eye on my grabs, I am going off watch for a while.

QRP rules OK.

Judging by your signal level, you might just be detectable here with 10-20dB less, especially if I wound the RX bandwidth down a bit more. We should try this sometime. It would be impressive to detect you with real QRP at your end.
