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.
