This has been the majority opinion. Just my call, no /0 (or should I sign W2UP/0/QRP??)

Did a little listening on 20m this morning. A few weak EUs, but doesn't look good...

Exactly right, Mike. It's the equivalent of signing /QRP -- making the QSO more difficult. I work most DX contests QRP because I'm not competitive from W6,but I've NEVER signed QRP, and I won't work anyone who signs /QRP, because I know the guy on the other end will be a time-waster.

Personally, I wouldn't bother. WAE is not a rate fest, and there will be enough displaced zero's in New England and 100 other places Stateside closer to EU than you are, that you're just making extra work for yourself and your QSO partner (longer and more confusing to send the /0 and for the weak-ish
EU'n to get it right)
