Itd be interesting to do a hours of operation analysis at the peak of the
cycle, as opposed to 2006 which was on the verge of being the absolute bottom
of the cycle...
While you'll probably see an incremental change in the number of hams
operating 40-48, I'll bet money that the percentage over 24 hours increases
dramatically.
