"The TS-990 still has no test results released yet and I personally have no use for 130+ knobs and buttons that may only be used once during setup for many."
Just for concept discussion, it would be really interesting to use a TFT LCD 5" hi-res color touch screen as part of a new front panel for the K3. Just a new front panel interface with a lot of the "knob" functions accessible as a touch menu items on the screen. Because of the hi-volume use of this technology in the cellphone industry, prices should be low, and software development libraries mature. This would then open up a significant advance in the GUI and features available in the radio, like maybe a limited bandscope. I have no idea if this is code-compatible with the existing K3? But nonetheless fun to dream about.....
