We don't comment on prospective product ideas. But the new KSYN3A synth module is--as you noted--an example of our commitment to the K3.

If it is like the more modern radios, it may have both push and hold tuning for each button. A serious attack on driver distraction with ham mobile radios would be a very valuable feature.
