Or he can't post his complaints here (after all, he did spend a lot of money for the radio) so others can read his complaints then deem them worthy or not when considering to buy the stated radio.
What's bad for this site is fanboys who bring up carpeting or some other nonsense not related to scanning. Then I keep reading that firmwares may soon be released to fix a problem on a radio that's over two years old!
Maybe you'd like to read who brought up the carpeting and all the other analogies.
As for posting complaints, sure he can, he does, thats basically all he posts are complaints. That said if he can post comlaints don't get upset when others post that they don't agree with them.
It seems all K8TEK likes to do is go around and stir up trouble, he's started trouble on the GRE forum too. It looks like his posting privliages were taken away for a week and now he's come back with a vengance. The problem really isn't even what he says it's the immature, arrogant, rude way he says them, but then again what can you expect from a 24 year old who's done and knows everything, someday maybe he'll grow up.
Why is it when someone says they don't have a problem that they are a "fanboy". The vast majority of "problems" are the user (aka the nut holding the knob), secondly people have an unrealistic expectation of what a scanning receiver can do. It will never perform as good as an actual radio on the system which cost three to five times as much and really only has to do one thing, that is monitor a single system. There seems to be more people that don't have problems then those that seem to complain about everything. The fact is if you really don't like the product sure say you don't like it and why, then get rid of it and buy something that does meet your needs. Having worked in sales there definately is a percentage of people that will and do complain about anything and there is no way anyone could make them happy.
Take a look at the complaint, he actually complains that the scanner is too small, what did he think it would expand and get bigger with use?
Just because a few people have problems monitoring certain systems that does not make it a problem for the vast majority of units that Uniden sold. The EDAC's problem is a prime example I monitor a few EDACS systems I have never had any problem with the "get extra beeps". Maybe the guys at Uniden also don't have any problems either so it makes it hard to fix a problem that they really can't confirm.
