Thanks Joe.
I have been using WSJT since 2001 and cringe every time I hear it called a
"QRP mode".

JT65 and JT9 are *not* "low power modes. They are *weak signal* modes
- there is a big difference. The genesis of Joe Taylor's modes was
EME and meteor scatter communications where "full gallon" transmitters
are normal and signals are still weak. Nobody with an understanding of
the history of JT4, JT6, JT9, JT65, FSK441, etc. would ever call them
"low power" modes or suggest EME and MS operators run 30 watts or less.
