While perusing QST for September, 1961, I came across the following..

In 1961, ARRL's BoD conducted a survey of band/mode use of 8000 hams
(membership and license class not specified). Results (operating time):

HF:
CW: 34.4%
AM: 27.8%
SSB: 23.3%
RTTY: 1.5%
FM/NBFM: 0.3%
Other modes: 0.6%

VHF/UHF (all modes): 12.1%

Without a single poll to back me up, the following could be said to
be accurate for 1911:

Any Frequency:
CW: 100% [on-off keying]
AM: 0%
SSB: 0%
RTTY: 0%
FM/NBFM: 0%
Other modes: 0%

VHF/UHF (all modes): 0%

In fact, there was NO ARRL and NONE of the amateur radio
enthusiasts were legal! [NO radio regulating agency active in
the USA in 1911] :-)
