[Elecraft] Wayne and Eric at Dayton

Like many of you I go to a lot of trade shows for my business, both as an
attendee and as an exhibitor. With this experience in my background I have
to say I was surprised and pleased to see both Eric and Wayne in the
Elecraft booth every time I walked by. I probably visited the booth 10 times
over three days, several of those visits being lengthy. In each case they
were both hard at work doing demos, talking to owners, taking orders, and
filling orders. Neither batted an eye at my obtuse request to have them
autograph one of the inside panels of my new K2.

The booth itself was equally humble. A small investment in a pop-up display
would have really dressed it up, but a few nice posters and a couple tables
of product was more accessible and perhaps more impressive. No problem
picking up the merchandise or sending a CQ (no antenna, no problem -- it's
tough).

A little humility and accessibility goes an awful long way. You guys set a
high standard for yourself. It made me that much more proud to own an
Elecraft radio. Well done.
