[CQ-Contest] Should I sign portable zero in WAE next weekend?

[Jim Brown]

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.
