A "favorite maker" poll on a DX website "powered by Icom" might be interesting, but won't have much real value.

Paul, it's not a true random poll, so it says nothing about the larger ham community.  It's not limited to licensed amateurs or those who own transceivers, so it says nothing about sales.

Mike, many polls could be fake as we know for now ), however any one can be used for statistic purpose. What are missing in poll above - statistic countries of users., rest are powered by sponsor )

How is this not a random poll? What is that makes it biased one way or the other? You are simply speculating.

it is NOT RANDOM

It's very easy to vote multiple times by using different IP addresses

Comrades, No doubt this a futile effort by the Japanese equipment manufacturers to distort reality! Все в Автодор, товарищи! Грузите апельсины бочках братья Карамазовы. Командовать парадом буду я!

Can't see it's wrong voting anyhow? Showing that we Flexonians are out there and making some noise about or choise of radios Flex won't beat ICOM anyway. How could it? based on the shear no of ICOM's sold during many many moonlapses .. I voted to show I care about Flex getting as many votes as they can get.

Here’s the data from WRTC2018 Top 10 winners by make of radio: 7 Yaesu (mostly 5000s) 6 Icom (mostly 7851/7800s) 4 Elecraft 3 Kenwood (590s) The only SDRs were Icom 7610s. 10 teams x 2 radios each = total of 20 radios
