Topbanders Several months ago, I announced on this reflector a most-wanted DXCC country survey for topband only. It directed topbanders to a site containing a questionnaire. The survey was driven by myself but mechanized by Larry, K8UT from a similar survey he had completed for RTTY.
Over the summer, 257 topbanders filled out the questionnaire. Once the responses petered out, the data were analyzed by Larry, K8UT, coordinated with me. Nearly all the responses were from North America and Europe. We apparently failed to adequately reach JA--something to work on for next year-- and participation from South America and Africa, as well as the rest of Asia, was statistically insignificant. However, the tabulated results for NA and EU should be of interest to many subscribers to this reflector. These results are summarized in two .pdf documents. The results are found at http://ni6t.com/survey2011/. Note that the survey predated the establishment of the Republic of South Sudan, which is not included. My thanks to Larry, K8UT for his invaluable assistance to create this survey. If you find it useful, please credit appropriately. 73, Garry, NI6T _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw? BK
