[CQ-Contest] CQ WW Survey results - part 1

[David Gilbert]

I don't find the age distribution to be surprising at all.  Age data 
from the All Asian contest exchange looks similar.  Look at the pictures 
from Dayton or any club meeting and compare them to pictures taken 30 
years ago ... pretty much all you see are people that are 30 years older.

Somebody I was speaking to once claimed that the average age of ham 
radio ops in the U.S. increased at least one year every 1.5 years. Seems 
about right to me.

73,
