One of the interesting things about this it seems ever since I got my
license at the age of 14 in 1976, I've heard this is a dieing hobby. Yet,
I also seem to recall, the numbers of hams in the U.S. has more then
doubled.

Now, if someone said this was a hobby that was more and more irrelevent,
I'd have to agree.
