[UK-CONTEST] Oldies

I noticed that as well. I dabbled over the weekend and in 177 QSOs only  
worked one 15 year old and three in their 20s.
 
It isn't just RTTY contesting that has a mature population. I was at a  
certain radio group social event recently and at 49 I was the only person  under 50 
in the room. I agree with Dave we all need to help younger people enter  the 
hobby and get out on those field days. We won't be able to rescue collapsing  
towers for ever!
