I suggest to one other to visit the local auto window tint place.   Get a scrap of light green window tint, cut it to size and put it on the plastic overlay for the display.    Or if you know someone in the performance theater circles, get a piece of light gel which they use on spots.   Easy to put on and easy to remove if you don't care for it.

I think the solution to that particular problem is called the TS590. Unfortunately it comes with some other compromises.
That said, I think a green display on the K3 would be awesome.

In a similar, slightly humorous vein I wanted to replace some dial lamps on an old Yaesu with LED's. I had some white LED's and some sandpaper so set to work creating a degree of diffusion. Happy with the result I did a couple more and put them in the rig. The horror show started straight away. The 'white' LED's were in fact multi-colour of the seizure inducing kind, I guess they must call them rainbow LED's they change colour fast, then slow, then flash all colours in rapid succession. Quite the impression but not quite the right effect.

I occasionally pose this question. Is there any way to make the K3S display green like the K2?

Frank,

The K2 had backlighting since Day 1.  You could turn on/off the
backlighting by selecting the menu LCD Nite or Day.
For the K1, it was an option that was developed some time after the K1
was announced.

Trying to recall (I have had some 10 K2’s) were there any that were produced without backlighting?
