[Elecraft] OT: Kenwood's new rig?

[Terry Schieler]

Maybe I haven't tried hard enough, but I can't seem to see the reasoning behind the two displays that, apparently, show the same VFO A and VFO B information.  Did they just have panel space left over after running out of button and knob functions?

THe link given http://www.cqdx.ru/ham/new-equipment/ts-990_picture/
gives you a reasonable picture, click the picture and it's its possible to see individual controls.
On a Mac, you can ctrl-scroll to increase the magnification of the screen by significant amounts - I can not only see each function, but can read light blue and grey text on the display and each mark on the meter.

I counted 'double-pots' concentric knobs as two controls, but that only added 11 controls.
