[Elecraft] Seeking comments on Ham Expo from participants

[Grant Youngman]

I thought the Expo was excellent overall. I visited all of the booths, and watched maybe 80% of the presentations, both during the live event and afterwards.  Couldn’t have cared less about trying to earn points and winning a prize.  And of course the Elecraft events.

It was unique.   And except for not having a BA boneyard to wander through and take too much of my money, the best fest I attended this summer.  Well, it was the ONLY fest I attended :-)

Your presentation on the 3D KX2 design, was thoroughly enjoyable and very interesting.  Eric’s appearances— all three of the them — on the K4,  were informative.  I do wish the Q&A after Eric’s official Expo presentation had been posted to the web, and perhaps more so,  both of the extended 90 minute Q&Aa on the K4.  I learned something new in each of them.

I had some issues with the expo software itself, which I referred to the organizers as feedback in the questionnaire I received afterwards.  But they were largely minor, and mostly just navigation issues.

I’m looking forward to the coming one of these next year.  Mostly, I’m looking forward to my K4 :-)
