Though if you want to count that way, my QSOs with Duncan ZL3JT using my Small Wonders Lab PSK20 (at 3 watts) and the attic dipole would run at over 482 MILLION cm/W. Maybe it's not that bad...

Either stick to SI units (km/w) or if you want American Customary units, by all means go with mile/horsepower. Or perhaps furlong/horsepower? Personally I’d go with km/w since both of those are what’s in the ADIF spec, but I confess that furlong/horsepower has a certain quaint eccentricity I admire. -p KG7STV 73, don’t forget to smile and have fun
