[Elecraft] Seeking comments on Ham Expo from participants

[Andrew Hebden]

Hi,
I enjoyed the Ham Expo with plenty to see along with presentations from
various vendors. Getting to grips with the navigation was relatively
straight forward although the chat room got a little busy until I realised I
could turn parts of it off. Overall, it was more or less what I expected.
Not too fussed about joining in the kids game of collecting points.

My specific interest was the K4 presentations which Eric made look so easy
with his laid back style. I did get a bit confused with some of the
questions being raised as many were not on the on-line list of questions. I
presumed that they had been raised in advance although at one point I
suspected they had come from the Elecraft chat room. It did not detract me
from enjoying "the show", especially as I had three questions addressed.
Many other queries I had were answered as part of the presentation in a
pleasant straight forward manner.
Your 3D presentation was absolutely fascinating, what more can I say?
I got the impression Scott was caught on the hop but did his best.

Eric Guth was great

Several questions were answered in text mode within the chat box by someone
else. Unfortunately, I had a fleeting glance of one of my questions being
answered before it all disappeared at the end of the presentation. It would
be nice to see the text within the questions list be published alongside
some of the other Q&A sessions.  I appreciate that this may be technically
difficult as well as the possibility of the requirement for "plausible
deniability", said with tongue in cheek!

Many thanks for all the effort put in, it made for a pleasant experience
after so long in lockdown.

Hi all,

I'd like to write up a summary of the recent [virtual] Ham Expo, especially
for the benefit of those who weren't able to make it. Perhaps they'll get a
chance later this year or next March -- both likely, as the Expo was quite a
success overall.

It was, shall we say, unique...I'd love to hear about your experiences,
good, bad, or in-between. Ideas for future expos are also welcome, whether
Elecraft-specific or applicable to the event as a whole.

This feedback will also be invaluable for the team that put on the expo,
including my good friend Eric Guth, 4Z1UG. (Don't let my acquaintance with
Eric inhibit your free expression...he's pure teflon.)

Thanks again to all who dropped by our booth.

Wayne
