Unfortunately, I dropped out of Ham radio to work on S/360 OS/MVT
and then MVS systems so I didn't have the first hand experience of
seeing the dieoff.

Same hear, running around fixing 360 main frames and related I/O
kept me too busy to ham much.

Both of you (as well as myself) *WERE* the die off....

What "die off"? The US manufacturers died off but the number of hams
just grew and grew...

Are they *still* growing? I think not....
