I have noticed that Ron has been calling cq on top of other qso' a number of times only because the dx stations are not hearing him. Some of the dx stations around EU are themselves very weak even with average power output and this makes it difficult for me and others to work the dx. Ron because of his close proximity to me is 589 most of the time. Like the hf bands QRP and QRO should be kept apart for the mutual benefit of all band users. de Mal/G3KEV
