Admittedly, I'm a serious contester. Sit in front of a radio for 24, 36, 44.5 hrs (an aging contester) and you will soon see that the bells and whistles, flashy lights, and other gizmos generally mean diddly. For me, keeping my fingers as near to the keyboard as possible is one of those little things that contributes to the score. Think about how much effort is wasted messing with a mouse and then getting your fingers back to proper keys. Give me a few simple knobs and a keyboard and I'm happy and efficient. I'm happy that Elecraft has put the horsepower in the radio and not gone overboard with the flashy light stuff.
Is the tide turning? Not from my perspective. 73 charlie, k1xx And no, I don't want to go back to paper logging!
