Jon,

It isn't the number of years so much as it is whether or not you are
enjoying it.  I think that was the real message in Ken's note.  After all
these years he is still enjoying the many facets of amateur radio.  He's
having as much fun working new countries on 160 as he had when he worked
his first DXCC.
