Re: [CQ-Contest] Where are the JA's

[Dave Lawley <g4buo@compuserve.com>]

The number of JA hams has declined from its peak but I think the decline 
in JA contesters is sharper. When we ran GB50 from Windsor Castle, we 
were amazed how very many JAs we worked. Many more than we work in a 
contest from M6T.

It seems to me that Japanese hams still like to work 'DX' but are not 
turned on by contesting. Perhaps contesting isn't heavily promoted in Japan.
