[QCWA Hotlist] Going Digital or Gone Digital?

[John T. Fleming]

Bob,

Chapter 217 has 23 members on the roster and all members have email. In fact
we are so sophisticated here in The Villages, that most have smart phones
that automatically shouts QCWA whenever it detects QCWA in the subject!!!
;-}

73,
John

Good Morning,

This is mostly for the chapter Secretaries.

I was exchanging email ids with a member in Virginia and the comment was
made:  >We KNOW that MOST members don't DO DIGITAL' 
I'm wondering about the veracity of that statement.

At Chapter 8, only have 18.6% (8 of 43) that don't have email. Those ages
are 65, 69, 72, 78, 84, 84, 93 and one that will be 100 this year. Ben,
W0DKL our soon to be 100 year old has a computer but can't use it because of
failing sight. Our oldest email user is John, W0JBX, born 1919 and we have 4
of 6 born 1920 - 1929 that have email ids.

As you have time, please post the percentage of members in your chapter that
have email ids.  While not very scientific, it should give an idea of how
Digital our membership may or may not be.

tnx es 73,
Bob Roske, NØUF
