As one that is involved in other like type reflectors {owner and / or
moderator}, they are a great source of information, for problem solving
and learning, specially for those new to ham radio or new to a
particular radio. If one would just read the manual that would help for
75% of the time. RTFM {Read The Full Manual} So in that light, most
things one reads on the reflectors will appear to be issues. I'd
always heard "the bit dog yelps the loudest." What's not generally seen
are the "good ones" being those that are having great success with their
radio.
Look at product reviews on a place such as Amazon. Same thing. A few
good ones, which are from satisfied customers. It would be interesting
to see the percentage of units sold vs. satisfied customer posting. At
the same time, the percentage sold compared against the unsatisfied
customers posting. The point being, we are quick to write and post a
complaint, but rarely do we take time to share good results.
For me, the K3S is on top of the performance and feature list. Issues
and problems on my part at at absolute 0. And I have other radios,
both USA made and JA made. The K3S tops all of them in quality and
performance. Zero complaints and Zero problems here {other than
those where I screw up.}
Most are quick to fault a product and point fingers. I say, "when one
points a finger, look down, there's likely 3 pointing back at the true
source of the problem". Someone said they didn't like the looks of
it. Hey folks, this is radio, not TV. I can't see what you are using
but I sure can hear it!
