It was my pleasure to be at Frostfest. I thank those who regularly
organize the Elecraft booth at that event. I did meet many friends that
I have corresponded with via email and several that I have never met
before. The entire experience was wonderful. Again, thank you to Tom,
Willy, Rob and Bill for planning and operating the Elecraft booth at
Frostfest. I plan to do it again next year.

On behalf of Tom, Rob, Willy and myself, I want to thank you for making the
trip up to Frostfest on Saturday. Your knowledge and expertise added a new
dimension to our Frostfest experience. We hope you will consider making the
trip again.
And thanks to all our friends who stopped by to chat with us. It's a real treat
to see so many people so happy with their equipment. They don't drop by to
complain but praise both the radios and the company. And the representatives
such as Don, Eric and Wayne. Where else can you post a question on the
reflector and get an answer quickly and from one of the owners or the
programmer himself.

Thank you Ted, but I have to give great thanks to Bill, Willy, Tom, and Rob for
organizing the booth at Frostfest. I just "came along for the ride". Those
folks are 'locals' in the Richmond, VA area while I had a 2 1/2 hour drive to get there.
I arrived shortly after the gates opened. But I do thank those loyal locals who man the
volunteer Elecraft booth at Frostfest year after year.
For me, it was a great event - my first time at Frostfest, and I was delighted
to meet many new faces as well as seeing many familiar ones.
My next "big" hamfest will be RARSfest (April 4, 2015) which is local for me,
followed by my annual trip to Dayton for FDIM and that 'small hamfest down the road:-) '
from the FDIM location.
BTW, for those who are local to the Raleigh, NC area, Elecraft will be
officially at RARS this year with a full-time Elecraft employee, which means we
will be offering show specials and the capability to take product orders. See
you at the RARS hamfest.

I want to acknowledge publicly someone who is one of the principal pillars
of this reflector. This may embarrass Don, whose modesty is utterly
graceful, though my purpose is not to embarrass but to thank.
This past weekend I was in 4-land visiting my son and his family. Sonny
surprised me by taking his Old Man to the Richmond (VA) Hamfest, a
selfless filial act if there ever was one. But there was the Elecraft
booth; and manning it was Don, W3FPR. When I saw his name/call tag I had
to introduce myself. What followed was a memorable, helpful, and
altogether delightful "eyeball QSO" with a truly First Class ham.
Thanks, Don; here¹s to you.
Ted, KN1CBR
