Really???? Maximum output in my shack is 10W. I work
much more SSB than CW. If you're ever in Cincinnati
I'll be happy to show you my logs and my QSL cards.
Oh, and no, I don't believe in making someone else
strain to hear me. If I am not clealry copied I move
on.
So, no, I don't know that 100W doesn't cut it. When I
had 100W it was just too easy and too boring.
Besides, I live in a densely populated city
neighborhood and I have no desire for my neighbors to
hear me on poorly designed TVs, stereos, cheap phones,
etc... Keeping the peace means QRP.
Oh, and no, I will not be disappointed if I don't
break through a huge pileup to some DXpedition on SSB.
There's always CW and digital for that :)
