Mindy from Vero Telecom asked me to share this information with all of you: there’s an opportunity for licensed hams to test drive their dual-band radio.
Important Update: read the terms and conditions first! – http://www.verotelecom.com/~verotele/test-letter.htm
The radio won’t be free of charge, but you will get a $100 discount after submitting your test report.
The application form can be found here.

Thank you so much ! 🙂
Darn it. I applied… didn’t read the “gotta pay” part…. Well, count me out
Sure, can you please send us a mail to tell this or could you give me your mail address?
You have to buy the radio and they’ll give you some cash back after you’ve reviewed and advertised it. I guess if you’d planned to buy one anyway it might be a good deal.

Hmmm, Pay US$400 for the privilege of receiving a pre-production unit (that is sure to have multiple harware and firmware ‘issues’), being a beta tester and signing my name/callsign to 5x ‘favorable’ social media reviews? . No thanks..
$100 Yeah right ! And if they don’t like the review ?????

And of course, if they failed to pay up, it would be so easy to take them to court (not).
Just FYI, they want $410.00 USD UP FRONT, for them to send you the radio.
That’s not how you PR, Vero!
