Good point and something I've been wondering about.

I have a Timewave 599ZX (which fits/sits very nicely on top of my K2). I =
like the availability of the 'knobs/buttons' on the Timewave in order to =
immediately tweek signals 'on the fly'. While I do like the Timewave for =
'base ops' it is certainly not suitable for battery/portable operations =
(draws too much current).

My question is this: Since the K2DSP is (by necessity) menu driven I've =
wondered how quickly one can adjust the settings having to access =
various menus.
