I was an Elecraft representative at Seapac in 2002 or 2003. I hooked the K2 up to the metal framing holding the venue's curtains. There were two pedestrian mobile stations to work and by the end of the day two more fixed stations. So we were able to make contacts with each of them. I brought some special QSL cards for the occasion and talked with quite a few CW operators. The sound of CW brought many folks to the Elecraft booth. It was fun to watch them copy in their heads as they listened.

Load whatever you can and have fun.

You can do a demo using "inside signals," but they won't be very interesting 
unless you plant stooges around the arena with QRP rigs.

Tom,
     You might find out if signals can be heard within the arena - there
must be a lot of steel in the structure.   I think Elecraft uses recorded
signals for their stand's display.   Do not hold me to this but the likes or
Eric, Wayne or Don would know for sure.
