In my previous post, I forgot to include the source of the various
numbers not provided by W5ESE. The current US population came from the "population clock" website: http://www.census.gov/main/www/popclock.html which is run by the US Census folks. I'm not sure how often it updates. Last time I looked it was 309,039,794 The license numbers came from the ARRL website, which is the source of all the ARS license numbers I've posted: http://www.arrl.org/fcc/stats.html As of April 9 2010, the number of current unexpired FCC-issued amateur licenses held by individuals was: Novice 16,683 Tech 338,087 Tech Plus 15 General 152,796 Advanced 60,367 Extra 120,631 Total 688,579 which works out to about 1 ham for every 449 people in the USA. 73 de Jim, N2EY |
