[RCSE] New Receiver Standard

2001-01-10 Thread Bill Swingle

Thanks to Tom Hoopes for relating his test results. Empirical data is the best
and we owe Tom our gratitude for his efforts.

The marketing trends of today don't include the hard core factual data. And,
I'm not expecting to see this change. Thus, it's difficult to separate truth
from lies (oops, marketing literature). Thus, I propose a NEW STANDARD to help
us separate the good from the bad.  The "Hoopes Seal of Approval".

Heck, this is already being done by the more savy manufacturers so it
shouldn't be too tough to implement. Once Tom has approved a receiver, the
manufacturer could include "Hoopes Approved" in their literature and/or mark
it directly on the case.

Tom's approval is good enough for me and I'd guess many others. Just look at
all those he's helped with the Stylus Tx. He's known and trusted. That's
valuable to consumers.

I agree with Bill. I would not be able to fly many of the planes I do
without Tom's amazing skills on programming the Stylus Tx. His seal of
approval on Rx's would be meaningful to memore power to Tom, helps us
consumers.

Well, at the very least we should band together and do
the following: ask all the mfrs to release and swear
to their specs for bandwidth at -6 and -60 db,
sensitivity for 10 db s/(s+n), current drain, low
voltage limit (and maybe more that others more savvy
than I might propose). Maybe we could strike a blow
for the good cause.
