Hi Wayne,
A thumbs up here. I was disappointed that I couldn’t watch the presentations live with my tablet (still not sure why? Probably cockpit error here!) but the format of leaving the presentations on line is a good idea. I am also disappointed that I missed most the Q&A sessions. The few that I did catch seemed to be as informative as the presentations themselves. It would be nice to have them on line also. I didn’t spend much time in the booth as I already run a K3s/KPA1500 and don’t need to even think of the K4 in the short term :-).
73,
Bill WE5P

Although I'll never be in the market for a K4 (KX4 maybe), Eric's talk was informative, well done, and it was nice that it ended at 30 minutes.

It took me a few days to find Wayne's talk on the KX2, as I was busy during the announced times on the weekend.
