So for example if you have 10 Spektrum users, 3 Sanwa's, 2 Futaba and 1 KO, there would be a greater chance someone posting a Spektrum issue than the other three.

Do you not agree?
I agree.

But just to get it absolutely clear. You think that Spektrum radios/receivers do NOT have more problems with range, brown outs etc. than other radios, measured in percentage of sold units (eliminating the vast quantites of Spektrums sold).

I don't know the sales statistics, but do you know that Spektrums are sold in such superior numbers than Sanwa/Airtronic and Futaba. Those brands have low and mid range radios also, probably sold in great numbers as well.
