Hello All Yes Jim and I did an Elecraft display at the Wichita Area Hamfest yesterday. Worked quite well.
Jim supplied the K-line. I supplied the K2, two transverters, six mini-kits and the XG-3. Oh wait there were two XG-3s as Jim had his there too. We both supplied lots of BS between each other and lots of facts about the Elecraft stuff. All of the products were well received. Perhaps the most interest was show toward the XG-3. Several professional techs were very interested in something they could take to a plane, car or truck without having to haul out the bench equipment on the two wheeler. If Elecraft sees an uptick in XG-3 sales in the Wichita area over the next week, you're welcome. :-) Both Jim and I enjoyed the event, as we enjoyed the Kansas State Convention in Salina a couple of weeks ago. Having a full K-line on display, and working with an outside antenna is no doubt the focus of the display. But having the K-2 and other products on display (and in the case of the K-2 also with an outside antenna) showed the diversity of the product line. I hope over the next few months that I'm able to add a KX-3, and more of the other stuff to the display as well. All in all I think it worked well for those at the hamfest, and really that's what's important. David KD0R On 10/2/2011 10:00 AM, Nate Bargmann wrote: > Take a look at what Jim, W0EB, and others do.
