I just went back and looked it up, the actual captioning on the chart, it is:
% wanting less & % wanting more
Now Russ if you really want to get a headache the largest % of wanting less was
contesting.
The largest % wanting more was for antennas 61% followed by construction
projects 49%. Again the lowest % of wanting more was contesting only 7%.
Traffic handling faired even better than contesting.
There was no category for 'shack-on-a-belt' or repeaters.

There may be a difference between "doesn't want" as in "doesn't care" on the
one hand and "wishes for it not to be there" on the other.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Follow-up Line Scores
I am now in receipt of several documents relating to publishing line scores.
I only gave them a cursory glance because like any good contester I have
antenna wok to do before the contest starts this afternoon.
My first impression, however, is to throw my QST in the fireplace.
Does anyone remember what year line scores were dropped from QST?
There is a very informative story in the June QST which says almost 1/3 of
the ARRL membership doesn't want contesting 'stuff' in the magazine while
only 7% want it.
What would be the ramification if overnight 7% of the QST circulation
vanished?
Why am I a member of the ARRL when almost 1/3 of the membership doesn't want
me and my kind(contesters) around?
