I would -NOT- want to see the K3 larger, especially if only to accomodate a band display! I've just sold an IC-756 PRO II to help cover the cost of my K3 ... never used the band display. The small size is a (minor) consideration in my choice. It will be used in our RV six months out of each year, as is/was my K2. 73! Ken Kopp - K0PP k0pp at arrl.net
