Did a quick histogram on ages received in JARTS contest exchanges. I
removed 00's, 99's, the guys who would only send me serial number 001, and
only count each call once (even if worked on multiple bands).
Youngest guy I worked was 22, oldest was 93, most populous age range was
65-69.

Incidentally... I am 48, and made my first RTTY QSO at age 17 with a
homemade TU cobbled out of Radio Shack parts, an Apple II, and a HW-100
(also had a real Teletype but didn't use it the first time on the air!).
After going away to college I did not get back on for RTTY till just 3
years ago.
