From my observations, eHam routinely deletes negative reviews without
notice, particularly, it seems, when they concern eHam advertisers (or
perhaps when those advertisers complain). A lengthy and informative
eHam thread on first-hand accounts of MFJ product defects was similarly
"disappeared" by eHam management.
As a long-time owner/webmaster of a large web-based BBS, I can tell you
that this is mad mojo.
As a TT user, I think it's folly for TT to try to limit who buys their
radios as doing so will not keep the radios out of the so-called
malcontents' hands, and will only serve to build further animosity and
open letters like the one that spawned this thread. If TT's policy is
"One 30-day return per customer" then it should be so published.
