From Dave G3YMC
I heard Ron G6RO calling CQ several times last week identifying as using

qrp - he was

549, perfect copy, against the 579 I normally copy him.  Fortunately my

local qrm was

off at the time.
I did not realise until I mentioned this to Steve GW4ALG today that Ron is

in fact

using Steve's 5W qrp rig.  At 283km this is an excellent distance for qrp.

Please

pass this information to Ron if you speak to him before me.
There is much that can be done on the band by us low power operators!!

I heard Ron on Sunday morning, but only at 319, signing G6RO/QRP.
