And silly me I prefer the smaller rig with the fewer buttons.  Not to
mention that you can use the memories to get separate band buttons using the
keypad if needed.

Man, this dude sums up my feelings EXACTLY!

Maybe going banal, but I vsetaki speak: the K3 nekazisty design, it
looks like something krivovato.

"Looks like something krivovato":  I'm going to take a wild guess
here, but I'm betting that "krivovato" means "a radio that really
should be larger, with buttons for each of the bands - none of that
"up" and "down" stuff for bands or modes."
