Signing /qrp is not a great idea.  Just make your call and see where it takes 
you.

There are plenty of receivers in the Reverse Beacon Net that will cluster spot 
for you when you simply call CQ (in nearly any digital mode, including CW).

Having said that, some DX clusters mismanage the /qrp if your CQ gets beacon 
posted.  That can raise the frustration level of folks watching the cluster 
because it may give a false country allocation.  Um, some folks handle that 
frustration better than others... ;)

Only a few DX stations actively working contacts will take the time for QRP.

Life is too short for QRP.  ;o) but opinions may vary.
