We had lots of interest for the HamWAN project at the Mike and Key Electronics Show and Fleamarket. I had a grid dish on my table at the Puyallup hamfest this year.

I answered lots of questions and I distributed 40 fliers to interested hams. Here are some of the comments:

"How do you stay in line for Part 97?"
Upon seeing the MikroTik QRT-5: "Wow, I didn't know it could be so easy, look so nice!"
"What kind of Ubiquiti equipment do I use?" (the MikroTik brand is not well known with hams in our region)
"Okay, line of sight, I am going to take a look this afternoon!"
"How much does it cost? Where can I buy the equipment?" (Flytec sells the QRT-5 cheap on Amazon)
"How do you guys fund this project?"

Many were very excited to see and touch the three configurations that I showed:

Integrated, flat-panel MIMO antenna/radio/modem
MIMO radio/modem with a dedicated panel antenna
Grid dish with single-channel radio/modem

A handful asked for path plots. Tom, you should see some requests coming from people who join the mailing list in the next few days. Some were curious about a north sector at Tiger Mountain.

Thanks for your help on the tri-fold brochures, Nigel. These were a BIG hit at the hamfest.
