Philip, I am Scott and I make the SIde KX. Please keep in mind there are holes in each end that allow finger access from the side to power on/off. I am very left handed and I have no issues with any of the buttons. I have had some complain that they feel it restricts their button pressing with my end on the radio... but as some others have said the protection offered trumps the minor learning curve of how to press the button(s) with the end panels on.
If you are getting both the KX3 and a PX3 Just can't imagine chancing something happening to those displays should it get knocked over or worse fall to the ground/floor with out any protection. I take both the KX3 and the PX3 to the field often and I have no issues just putting them in my backpack and going, knowing all is protected for the trip. 73 Scott AK6q On Saturday, January 31, 2015 6:39 AM, Philip Alley [via Elecraft] <[email protected]> wrote: I am considering acquiring Side KX for my KX3 and potential PX3.
