I am new to the Elecraft world, I still haven't finished inventory on my first kit (K1 #2799), but reading this thread and those about how the K3 is used by serious contesters brought a question to mind. Wouldn't support for an external, programmable, control surface for the K3 be more appropriate than adding buttons to the front panel? Perhaps something from the CAD or gaming world. The surface would not even necessarily be connected directly to the radio itself, but to the computer controlling it, sending appropriate commands via the computer control port. To my inexperienced mind, that seems a more flexible setup. Keeping the radio simple, but providing the desired flexibility.
