Because: 1.) the operator is busy making two or three QSO's per minute, barely keeping up with logging keystrokes 2.) unfamiliar with the radio already, and the buttons are close together and serve multiple functions 3.) has to remember what to do while distracted by a dozen other things 4.) will get totally hosed if something goes wrong by a mistake It is competition use under pressure where the operator barely keeps up, which is different from other use. I understand the goals of this are entirely different than a small front panel and people having time to think about what to do, and mistakes are not devastating. I don't think there is a solution here for now, because I think the problem is too specific to contesting with diversity on multiple receiving antennas. Thanks for all the responses. I'm fully satisfied and appreciate all the input. 73 Tom ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
