I find that I'm willing to accept the numbers the reviewer provides at
face value. I might not accept the reviewer's interpretation of those
numbers or any overall conclusions he draws about the receiver, though.


Whatever the value of this particular reviewers observations, it is
just plain weird that he never mentioned the manufacturer of the E1
even once, while mentioning Drake four times. Someone totally new to
shortwave would walk away from this review thinking the E1 is in fact
the "Drake E1". In that respect it is misleading.
