Another of NOT ENOUGH, is that mostly some 60 or more stations do
callbacks here to the WIA NSW/ARNSW Dural site, after the WIA and local
Sunday broadcasts, but 99% not heard again until after next Sundays
broadcasts, or on their nets.
In other words, most remaining local NSW hams like to be seen, but
not heard. A very disappointing development in ham radio activity?
Also the Clubs seem to have reasonable attendances, for meetings,
XMAS parties and auctions etc, but most seldom transmit or reply to a CQ.
Also a few photos I have seen of club member groups, seem to be 80% of
those in excess of 60 years of age.I for one am now 84!
Of course as I pointed out in my last bulletin, having worked over 100
different stations on the local repeaters in earlier years, one wonders
where they have all gone?
It is a puzzlement!
