[ARC5] Amateur radio operator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[Richard Knoppow]

     It would be interesting to know what percentage of sets are sold in 
Japan vs: elsewhere.  There are still more hams, as an absolute number, 
in the U.S. than in Japan and a lot in some other countries.  The raw 
statistics are on the sites cited in the previous messages.  Also, 
perhaps giving away my ignorance but what other products do these 
companies make that help keep the doors open?
