   Also I would personally find it very difficult to do REV using the K3's SUB
   button due to the very tight spacing of the SUB location.  There's simply no
   way my fingers would fit while depressing SUB and trying to turn the VFO
   knob with another finger.  The spacing is far too tight, not to mention the
   position of SUB being very low even with the bail extended.  To me it looks
   more like a two-hand operation than one-hand due to the very tight spacing. 
   Maybe a Menu option could make everyone happy, but I like it the way it is
   now.

Err, what Ian and I are suggesting would not in any way interfer with
your doing it that way.  It would just allow those of us with smaller
hands (and those who might prefer lower hands and/or higher radios) to
have a more convenient function, using a button that is currently
serving no useful purpose.  You'd lose nothing, others would gain.
