The  new venue for the Antenna forum and the Contest forum at the Crowne
Plaza  on Saturday afternoon was a major hit. K1DG and K3LR are not
certain which  location will be used next year (HARA or the hotel). The 5
hours of forum  talks this year were well attended.


 
Early on at the contest dinner I heard a comment to the effect of "be  sure 
to get your contest forum questionaires returned..."
 
Since I spent Saturday at HARA, not at the forums, I did not get a  
questionaire, which is no big deal.  But I trust the organizers will  recognize the 
self selection factors in judging the positive responses.   Those who did not 
want to miss the HARA activities for the Contest/Antenna  forums weren't there to 
speak up.
 
I'd much prefer the forums to be held at HARA, if a suitably large space  can 
be arranged.  I like the other Hamvention activities, and I like to be  able 
to gracefully duck out of an uninteresting forum presentation.
