When running QRP, act like you're a normal station and be the band. Less

normally. 

I couldn't agree more.  I did several contests QRP in the late 70s, early 80s 
and found that if I didn't identify myself as QRP, few knew.  I was quite 
surprised to be able to crunch pileups on occasion, even on 160.  Best practice, 
work just like other people, pay attention to business, on CW be especially 
careful where you place your signal, often + or - 100 Hz can make the QSO, and 
try to be where the herd isn't.  Paying attention to these kinds of details 
will also make you a much more effective LP or QRO operator.
