QRP

[Tony Castellano]

Last evening I had my best CW QRP contact yet. Running 0.1 Watts (100 milli Watts) to my wire antenna (OCF) I worked Japan, JA7BXS and received a 559 signal report. My QTH is in Hopewell Juction, NY which is close to Poughkeepsie, so this equates
to 67,105 miles per Watt. I was using my KX3 by the way.
I only work CW QRP, and to date, I have 182 countries.

Nice going, Tony.  And you were still only 30 dB (approx 5 S Units) down
from  a 100 watt station!
