Hi All,
I think I have always liked it because it looks more "military heavy 
duty" with the round head screws.  Reminds me of those what are they? 
ARC-5 receivers I think made of aluminum plate and plenty of screws.

I honestly wouldn't like the K-2 styling one bit if it was put in a say 
a Kenwood TS-2000 like sleazy plastic case.

Also I can't imagine the case with flat head screws.  Alignment would 
need to be perfect or a sharp edge of a screw head would be exposed.  I 
guess I just appreciate the practicality of the design of the entire 
shell. The screws are an integrated part of the design.  I like it so 
much that I bought an EC-2 for my KAT10 and KPA100.

Steve
