[Elecraft] K2/100 (and other) Reviews Needed for eHam

[Larry Phipps]

I assure you it is! I market a digital wattmeter kit and almost every 
customer I poll says that eHam.net reviews were either the source of 
their initial exposure to my kit, or the deciding factor in purchasing. 
Some visit the site regularly looking for products with a rating of 5.0 
or close and a large number of reviews, while some go there to verify 
performance claims, which may seem hard to believe otherwise in my case. 
Either way, it's by far my best marketing tool followed by comments on 
reflectors and word of mouth OTA, at club meetings, etc... all basically 
someone's opinion. I suspect it's the same with Elecraft.

In other words, an impartial third party opinion counts more than a 
manufacturer's claims.

Marketing execs tell us that people do listen to this kind of stuff, but do we? Is this stuff worth powder and shot?
