Very well stated, Paul.
I'm on the record as a QRP aficionado, but also as the guy that pours
some cold water on QRPers to remind them the other station does most of
the 'heavy lifting'.
Improving one's RX is not trivial, but very rewarding. The main
beneficiary is you, not the other guy (sorry, Jim). LOL

===================================
Nonsense. You don't improve your station so Jim can get another multiplier
(sorry, Jim).
You do it because you want to win. If you can work W6 QRP stations you will
have more QSOs than guys who can't. The same ability will probably help get
Pacific multipliers too.
You do it for fun. Working lots of guys is more fun than working fewer
guys.
You do it for the technical challenge. You analyze and design your station
to
be as good as possible.
Paul, K1XM
