    It usually comes down to a combination of these choices, not just one. I mostly fall into the "My life is busy right now ...", "I'm involved in other activities on element14 ..." or "Due to my knowledge…

    I voted for having no real use for the product.  Because I have no use for it I am not interested in devoting a lot of time to it and would be unlikely to to a good Roadtest.

    This will happen a lot because the RoadTests cover a wide range of equipment and devices, so it's not in any way a fault of the programme.

    For example, I haven't applied for the R & S power supply RoadTest which is currently ongoing - it's a nice enough power supply (although expensive) but the voltage and current range it covers just isn't appropriate to any current projects. So to do a decent test I would be using time for the purpose of the test itself which just isn't a cost effective thing to do.

    Michael, 

    Thanks for responding. Other members have told me this in the past. The product needs to be something they need after the roadtest. I think about it more so now than in the past. I see it as one of the leading causes people aren't applying. Looks like I have to do more checking with members before the roadtest is booked. Thanks.
