Phil,

It all depends on how you depress the buttons - which fingers you use and what angle your fingers use to 'attack' the buttons.

Try a quick test - find boxes or books that are bout 3/4 inch above the front panel of the KX3 and set them at the ends of the enclosure. Do you find it awkward to operate the buttons or not?

I personally find it difficult to operate the two pushbuttons used for power on/off, so I do not have the Side KX on mine. However, the protection that Side KX offers for travel may trump any slight difficulties one may have operating the buttons.

73,

edges of the radio. Is it an issue?
