I just called the 20 meter Elecraft CW Net. I worked folks in Michigan, Georgia, North Dakota, & Japan. QSB was strong except to the West, the JA was blasting in at S6 with weaker QSB. Waves of QRN were passing through the band which wiped it out for a few seconds too. 100 watts on CW works pretty well when the band is passable.

By that assessment, sometimes 10 kW is "QRP" (can't be heard) and sometimes
100 mW is QRO (heard Q5).

It's ALL about band cdx.

And that's all you need to know about QRP.

I knew I didn't have chance to be heard using QRP power.
