[Elecraft] Photos of K4 prototypes

[Roccon]

I also noticed this and I agree with you.
Is strange that the vfo b knob is so high and on the side.
You can't turn the vfo b knob leaving the arm on the desk and using just the wrist,
as you do with the k3/k3s and in many other radio, but you need to raise the arm and reach the knob with finger.
This little particular and a couple of other made me think to a fake when I first see the k4 photo.
For ergonomic experts like Wayne and Eric, is a peculiar choice.
Surely they had their good reason to do in this way, but I cannot figured out in this moment.

Ciao, Graziano iw2noy
