I think it is a matter of signal cleanlinessuse
the lowest power that allows the communication, with a
clean signal.
In PSK, as well as in SSB voice, and many digital
modes with an envelope (I am not referring to constant
envelope modes as RTTY) a clean signal is a must to
conserve

I completly agree with you on keeping PSK31 a low power mode. Have
had near 2000 contacts on PSK231 over four years running 15 to 20
watts output.
Here is a quote from an article by Steve Ford WB8IMY who writes for
QST and mostly about Digital modes.

Hi Gang!
Maybe someone could set up an online Waterfall Gallery with screen
shots of the most offensive splattering sigs posted (complete with
callsigns) for all to see. It'd be neat to use some thing
like KPSK with its multi-channel copy to show the same conversation
going on in 4 or 5
I don't mean to display my ignorance
too much anyway. But I'd like to ask a question or more.
Being a QRPer, I enjoy running low power. That
was one of the attractions of PSK. But I don't try to impress my way of
operating on others. Is there a technical reason for maintaining low
Kevin,
I thought PSK31 is supposed to be a QRP mode, so therefore
Tradition. But who operates true QRP 5 watts? I guess that is what
most think the power level should be for QRP? Have made contacts with
stations using 5 watts or less, and the copy was very good. The band

What does this have to do with your small mountain town...this is
weird. I run 50w all the time on digimodes except when I want to do
some QRP contesting. The small mountain town and the developers that
you all let in still doesnt make much sense to me. IE: what is the
relationship between
