First, thanks to all who helped to make this FD the success it was.  I
was unaware of both the coverage on WBZ radio and the lack of signs
pointing the way to the site.  I'd have taped the former.  The latter
caused us to miss a great photo op and some news coverage.  I hope one
of the area tv stations will visit next year.  Maybe we should assign
an official greeter for such vip's?

I like having all the stations in one area, and placed end-to-end, as
they were.  In previous operations, with each position in its own
enclosure, they appeared isolated from one-another.  I had little
interference  from neighboring stations.  Also,
I'm sure the arrangement made things easier on visitors.

The bigtop we used to cover the operating positions kept this operator
dry and in comfortable shade.  Had there been any wind, we'd have
gotten soaked.  I suppose we need a way to enclose the area in
inclement weather.  I'm glad things had a chance to dry out before
take-down.

More comments as they come to mind.
