Hello All,
I have volunteered for the second time to staff an Elecraft booth at a hamfest. This year it is at SeaPac (Seaside,
Oregon) on June 14th. Since I am not well versed in RF electronics (I am skilled in software, embedded systems, and
digital electronics) I was wondering if I could ask you all for a little assistance? If you were to visit the Elecraft booth at
the hamfest of your choice what would you want to know from the staff? Be specific because I'll take notes. From
these notes I will study and try to be prepared for the deluge of questions I hope to receive at SeaPac. Lisa will be
there to handle sales and I will offer my enthusiasm for a fine product. What I am hoping for is a little primer on the
details of the electronics of the K1 and the K2 and the various add-on packages. I have a K2/100 with the audio
filter/clock, the noise blanker, and SSB unit. I want to do as good a job as possible so feel free to tell me the most
minute details. I will print these out and show all visitors what kind of support is offered by the Elecraft mailing list. I will
also tell each and every visitor who asks what mistakes I made and how the Elecraft staff bent over backwards to assist
me in getting my rig up and running. It amazes me the level of support these gals and guys give each of us! I will not
hesitate to tell the visitors how they will not be allowed to fail in building an excellent rig.
I thank each and every one for any suggestions or comments that will assist me in being a humble representative of
Elecraft at SeaPac this year.
Sincerely,
Kevin. KD5ONS
