Default Re: ISB Receivers

It was supposed to be an article about a new method of assessing receiver performance, but it was really a vehicle to get out a market survey of many makes and models of receivers, by one of those makers. So it was going to be inevitably partisan. What went out first was so biased that the other makers could throw rocks at it and threaten legal action.

So the second, revised version isn't out of the woods, it will have been throttled-back enough for Marconi to feel safe from legal action. It won't be free of all spin or 100% trustworthy.

Marconi had a long history of making its customers do things to suit Marconi. It was a bit like seeing a dictator tread on a rake.

When the request went out to return all the copies of that edition went out, I wonder just how many sheets of photocopier paper got used around the world?
