Fw: [CQ-Contest] Q or not to Q

[Rex Maner]

Quack's
I agree with the statememt that   /QRP is just a waste of time.  Look at the
nr of dits and dahs.  That is equal to a 1x2 or 2x1 call.  the /qrp usually
follows  a 2/3 call sign. This really drags out a contact and if you miss
one of the letters in the person's call, they usually send the wd7???/qrp
again  ,  I operated the Stew Perry 160 test and didn't send QRP once.  In
that one it really wouldn't make any diff but in the WPX with high rates.
BIG DIFF.
The /QRP never makes it to my log for submission.
