    This comment is addressing videos from months ago up until now.. Comments like:
    "This is not news, this shouldn't be here"
    "Tired of everyone being a YouTube star with radio. Just tell us what the product is"
    "What happens if YouTube goes away, you will have to get a real job" HAHAHA, i work 55+ hours a week, and do this sometimes 3am before work to complete a video..
    "I'd rather read an article then have you make a video about it"
    "yah yah, another Chinese radio..."
    "yah yah, another D-star radio... "

    So this doesn't fit here, fine... I am not posting here anymore.. Besides, my traffic comes from YouTube, not QRZ, i am just posting it to QRZ as a courtesy to interest the people that may not watch YouTube regularly..

    So, then, why are you doing it? I looked at the video, and your YouTube page, and came to the same conclusion others did here - you forgot to indicate what you were reviewing! I have never commented on any of your videos before, or watched one until today, and that's the first thing I thought of - how will someone find this if you don't put it in the description?

    It's a valid piece of feedback, no?

    Obviously, do what you want...

    I see posts and comments in YouTube videos all the time, with suggestions on how the producer of the video could have made things more clear, left out irrelevant babble, etc. Most were valid comments. Please don't take the comments personally, they are meant as constructive criticism. Actually I probably would appreciate honest critique of any video I made.

    After reviewing our Field Day logs, it turns out one of the other operators for our KE4FD call was the one you were copying in the video. Thought it was me. Oh well. Still pretty cool you actually were copying our station! You are doing a good things for the Amateur Radio community. Keep up the good work. There are a lot of us out here that really appreciate you! 73, N4UVR

    Saw those at Dayton in 2014 or so. Neat idea, but at $300, it worked out to $1 per miliiwatt. One of the Ukranian SWL knock-offs and a cheap Android tablet gives you at least 8x the power.

    No power associated with a modem

    There was a very similar looking unit at Dayton that I thought was the Nue-PSK -- had an antenna jack and did a whopping 300mW. An Asian fellow was selling them -- $300 each, IIRC. Had similar looking controls and screens.

    OK, my comments:

    On the one hand, the OP needs to change his attitude and stop being so confrontational with his potential customers.

    But on the other hand, are some of you guys who are moaning at the OP brain dead? I watched his video and within about 5 minutes, he explained that the full details of the modem and where to buy it etc was given in the detail text of his Youtube video. I looked at the same video on Youtube and there was detailed text with the Ebay link to purchase it and details of who the seller is.

    This looks like a great unit. The review video is very clear and detailed, and I know exactly where to buy the unit. Thanks.

    I think the point (or my point, at least) was the model / brand isn't included in the title or meta data tags - if you were to google the device, you wouldn't find the video. That was all, that was my only suggestion.

    No biggie!
