When I see an independent study done by a group led by someone with at least a Master's degree in electronics or electrical engineering (preferably a doctorate) that shows a flaw in the 2.4 technology, I'll believe it. Some guy Googling a few pieces of information and drawing big conclusions based on logical fallacies (the article) isn't worth the time it took to read it. Read some real research or don't read anything! Sure, our radios are not 100% reliable. They never have been. But the widespread use of 2.4 has shown that it does work and does have some advantages that 72mhz cannot provide.

+1. My thoughts exactly. What is sad is that it appears that Greg Hahn has accepted this article as more than that. Of course, he does not make AMA policy either, the EC does.
I would think that the AMA has plenty of statistics from competitions and insurance claims to know that there is a problem. It would not take a Master degree in electronics to know that there is a problem, but it would help in solving the problem.
