There are reasons why that is the case. It will never die completely,
but it already is not the same hobby it was when we got into it. Other
things (social media, cell phones, video games, GMRS, etc) have almost
completely supplanted it. I wonder how many of us here reading this
thread have read or generated more emails and forum posts in the past
week than we monitored or initiated radio QSOs.
