[Elecraft] Elecraft KX4

[Clay Autery]

Do NOT "Nanny State" the design of the radio....  As a compromise, put 
in a firmware option that turns the panadapter OFF while the vehicle is 
in motion or something like that.  But even THEN, make it where the 
OWNER of the radio may affirmatively take action to disable this 
nanny-state-like "feature".  SOME folks are trained for and perfectly 
capable of driving and operating radios at the same time....

73,
