for hams.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would sketch out:
<div>
<div>L = country's population of licensed amateurs
<div>A = percentage currently active</div>
</div>
<div>H = percentage active on HF</div>
<div>M = percentage active on the mode/band you're using<br>
</div>
<div>P = factor for propagation </div>
<div>T = compatibility of timezones</div>
<div>etc</div>
<div>Where the "presence level" you're feeling in on-air
contact rates would be something like P = L x A x H x M x
P x T x ...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Another way to factor in to it would be aspects like
relative prosperity (to buy nice equipment), rate of
home/land ownership (to put up substantial antennas), or
social factors like the prevalence of clubs (perhaps
supporting better facilities, or encouraging
participation) or the likelihood to organize contests,
field days, etc. These are probably "orthogonal" to and
would cut across the "activity level" factors on the list
above.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My gut feeling is that Italy, Spain, and Germany
probably are in a sweet spot of population, wealth, and
geography/propagation related to US-east-coast hams. I
would assume that Japanese contacts are a bigger
percentage of a US-west-coast ham's experience. </div>

<div>Interesting question to explore!</div>

Germany was 15 at 0.073% and
Italy 21 at 0.049%.<br>
<br>
Slovenia was a bit of a
surprise but it is a small
country so a relatively small
population of hams (6,500 as
of 2000) can tip the scale
pretty easily. Same with
Norway with 6,818 hams as of
2022. US had almost 780,000
as of 2021.<br>
<br>
So we hams are a relative
rarity, population wise -
approx. 1 in 500 in the US.
