I have no idea why. Maybe Jim does. The original total expirations
for July before the renewal phase started was upwards of 13K or
more. Several thousand have obviously renewed, but there's still a
big number that are probably gone.

So dropping the Code was going to make HAM RADIO grow, yea RIGHT

Maybe the opposite is true......since most were Extra classes.

As Roseanne Roseanna Danna used to say, "It only goes to show ya. You
never know who might have just a passing interest in amateur radio."

I'd imagine that there are some NCT's that have a greater interest.

Hello Bruce. How've you been?

Maybe Ham Radio just isn't going to grow. It's been kept as a legacy
mode for too long.
