I do really enjoy the QRP power reports, actually
anything under 100 watts. The EU folks seem to have
the broadest range, as I recall this time, 5, 10, 20,
50, 75 and NN. I would miss that...

Or even 5nn ATT, the lack of reasonable periodic ID is
 one of the most frustrating things. Of course, if
everyone is using packet and/or a skimmer, it is less
of an issue. Those folks already know the call, else
they wouldn't be showing up and calling blindly would
they???
