0)Soda, chips, nice park
1) Increase operating skills
2)Maximize antenna & radio efficiency
3)Construct our own radios or build via kits
4)Greatly lessen chance of interference (TVI) - Peace on prime-time
Earth
5)To show the QROers it can be done so as to help them find "the
religion"
6)To make a cool website with show&tell pixs!
7)To build a brotherhood / society of like-minded active hams
8)To sizzle as many 2n2222's as possible in one lifetime / per QSO
9)Oh and yes, the silly, warm&fuzzy, relaxed and yet competitive
contests
10)To snag QRP-aware DX in a pilup with that added "qrp" designation
