I only wonder how accurate those figures are (and due to mistakes in accounting those figures, and not yours in getting them), or how many are not still in the living world with us. The figures are derived directly from the FCC database. They're not counted by hand, eliminating that source of error. The number who have died or who are completely inactive and will not return to amateur radio is completely unknown. Those folks will disappear by attrition, which can take up to 10 years. My purpose in posting these numbers for the past several years is to have a record of the changes in US amateur license numbers that always uses the same method of counting, *and* is not dependent on anything but preservation of Usenet archives.
