Not from the ones I worked. I'm going to disect my Cabrillo file and
figure out the median age. I'm pretty sure it is going to be in the
60s at least. Think W1WY was my oldest at 82, and know I worked 1
giving 21.

But wherever they turn out to be, it's going to be a lot older than is
good for RTTY.

We need to work on getting younger guys into our mode.
