.....The spread of licences years is strange; there are so few licencees
from recent years who do contests!


I wonder how the years broke down for Stewart's CW Log, my SSB LP Log shows
the following:

1950's - 11 q's
1960's - 51 q's
1970's - 96 q's
1980's - 141 q's
1990's - 136 q's
2000's - 122 q's

Oldest Licence 1951 - 1 q.  Incidently this is the first year since 2000
that I have not had a 194? in the log

Overall I was extreamly disapointed with 160m only 1 q whilst it was real
fun to be able to run using 100w on 10m (89 q's) and 15 m (76 q's) at over
60 per hour.  Would appreciate any comments about the noise (QRN not QRM) on
160m I found it to be very high. The 1 station I worked was about R3/4 S9++
on my loop but I could not hear him on my dipole!
