Worldwide Transceiver Survey
Locked

Why is Elecraft in 2nd place? I know we can do better than that! (Selective exposure?) Here's the link.

A rather useless survey. Nowhere to enter model, only manufacture. Not aware Beofeng made an HF radio.

You know, I'll bet the reason Icom is #1 in this survey is just possibly,
I'm going out on a limb here, they got more votes. Along the same lines, did you ever notice that a "V" of migrating geese has one leg longer than the other? Ever wonder why? It's because there's more geese in the longer leg...... 73, Charlie k3ICH -----Original Message----- From: [hidden email] <[hidden email]> On Behalf Of Bert Craig Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2018 10:23 AM To: [hidden email] Subject: [Elecraft] Worldwide Transceiver Survey Why is Elecraft in 2nd place?

Maybe the "powered by ICOM" has something to do with it???

What the heck difference does that make? Why should anyone care? It's stupid survey unencumbered by data in the first place , and in the second place the entire site is sponsored by Icom.

Oh no! That couldn't happen could it? At least Beofeng wasn't the sponsor.

I like ICOM, I also like Elecraft. DX'ers like ICOM but they are DX'ers first and QRP'ers second. I wouldn't look into the survey too seriously.

If you ask 10,000 hams, at random, you get a statistically valid result.
If the participants in the survey are self-selected, the results mean nothing -- and you get "Boaty McBoatface" as the winning name for the British NERC's new vessel. 73 -- Lynn On 10/3/2018 12:01 PM, Stephen Shearer wrote: > Maybe the "powered by ICOM" has something to do with it??? > > steve WB3LGC/NR3I > > On 10/3/2018 11:23 AM, Nr4c wrote: >> A rather useless survey.

Why are we wasting time AGAIN on this ridiculous & meaningless survey?
Are the bands THAT dead that we have nothing better to do? Besides, this thing went around a couple months ago anyway?

Might have more to do with the fact that ICOM is a supporter/advertiser

I would not assume that it has anything to do with ICOM supporting the
survey, and more with the fact that there are probably many more ICOM HF rig owners than Elecraft owners... if that is true then I am a bit surprised that Yaesu and Kenwood are not ahead of Elecraft... but what does it matter anyway. I don't know a soul who would sell their Elecraft rig just because of the results of that "survey".
