Having been on both sides if this, I think a calling station too weak to
copy is doing the running station a favor by giving up when the running
station is busy.
An important thing you learn when you're QRP is that you make QSOs over
the most difficult paths occur at propagation peaks, and you learn when
those peaks occur. :) I'm currently working on QRP WAS on 160M from my
QTH near San Francisco. Nearly all of my QSOs to the east coast have
occurred within an hour of sunrise on the other end. I'm still looking
for CT, VT, KY, SC, WV, and MS.
