"New hours are from 7:00AM until 12:00 Noon" seems like a really poor choice of time. I know plenty of people who are into electronics who'd be more likely to show up if this was from midnight to 5 am (not suggesting that that would be a good time, just that this time seems absurd when you're targeting geeks and maybe extending it into the afternoon would be a good idea).
- prova_modena 5y agoI have no experience with this event, but it's sort of common in amateur radio communities that events are scheduled around typical retiree hours (think "early bird special"). It can make it difficult for younger working people to attend, and given the legendary cliquishness of some of those communities it may be intentional. Again I know nothing about this specific event or the organizers so I'm not pointing fingers.
