Here's a tidbit that a *lot* of non-QRP ops don't understand about QRPers.
  Many QRPers seek out other QRPers.  So, most QRP ops are pretty familiar
with how weak signals sound.

A lot of QRPers do build their own stuff as well (probably much more so
than QRO ops).  Ragchewing bores the crap out of me, but I know other QRP
ops who love to ragchew, and do so regularly.  Remember, the difference
between 5W and 100W is only 13 dB....just over two S-units.  So if the
other guy running 100W is S-9 with me, I should be around S-7 to
him...which generally should not be a problem.
