I appreciate your asking for public feedback first and foremost. The event was well done given it was its inaugural occurrence. Wasn't a fan that the prize system could be so easily gamed. My suggestion that attendees perform some number of requisite activities to then be entered in a random drawing for the prizes. Keeps those from creating bots or "just passing through for the points" at bay.
I very much enjoyed the K4 presentation as well as the 3D KX3 presentation. I especially liked the "layered" approach to the K4 content. The prepared video followed by a live Zoom session with Eric. I makes sense to do the overview in a prepared format. My suggestion for next time is to add a FAQ section to the end of the overview to demonstrate close up and with detailed explanations as to the key features and functions you want to highlight. The hope would be to remove those questions from the interactive session by dealing with them in advance. The Zoom session was simply outstanding. Not just for the generosity of Eric's time as he took all questions asked, but his willing to be straight up and forthright regarding the 1st round of K4 shipments. That built a lot of trust with me. The only thing I would change would be to have the camera that was positioned to present the hands on demonstrations in a better spot to get a better view of the "button pushing" in action. I also liked that the Elecraft chat room always had several persons readily available to answer questions. In some chat rooms, you had one person constantly getting bombarded by attendees with questions and they couldn't keep up. Each rep highlighted their expertise (classic lines, KX, amps) in their descriptions so you could direct you questions to the person best suited to provide an answer. That alone made the process of getting questions answered easier and was a very thoughtful touch. Overall, great job. Best 73 as I save for my K4.....
