UK ham radio licence statistics

Ofcom have released the amateur radio licence statistics for May

They show that at the end of April there were a total of 83,053 licences issued.

It is thought there may be around 25,000 lifetime licences issued
since December 2006 that have not been revalidated every 5 years as
requested by Ofcom. The holders of these licences may have either
passed away in the past 8 years or else left the hobby.

As yet Ofcom has not undertaken the process of revoking the licences
and so they remain in the valid licence statistics.
