I'd *love* to see a structured look at radio UI. My girlfriend just got an IC-7300, and I couldn't help but notice that my KX3, a "portable" radio, had more physical controls, more of which were explicitly labeled. On the -7300, I have to guess which of four buttons a given setting is behind. I'm learning the pattern, but it feels a lot more fiddly than just scanning below the display for the right button and knob and pressing and turning it.
