I programmed the M1 through M4 buttons for bandwidth instead of using the 
rotary knob. Much better for CW.

I would like to disable the attenuator so ops don't push too long and turn 
it on. With my station I never use the ATT function, just preamp on or off.

The only other issue is the A>B split button and A/B. It would be nice to 
have a second frequency tucked away for instant recall with one quick tap, 
not what is on VFO A or B. I think what people really miss is being able to 
tap the band buttons and have two frequencies stored in each band button 
like a Yaesu will do. I really miss those band buttons. :-)

The size isn't as important to operators here (or me) as being able to make 
the above happen fast while distracted. I'd take a bigger box to have those 
band buttons.
