I would think that there would be MORE VHF/UHF operators then HF since 
almost everyone has operator privileges there.  I also didn't know there 
were NON-CW portions of the bands, I thought CW was allowed on ALL of our 
frequencies (except maybe 14.233MHz, where anything other then SSTV is 
prohibited :-) )!
