I hate pumpkin too. If I am understanding it
"OMNIGLOW" style is orange when the backlight is off
and becomes more so as the backlight is increased.
The K3 display has a light gray backround with black
digits when the backlight is off (transflective), and
becomes more (ahem - "Amber" according to SeƱior
Wayne) as the backlight is increased.
Seems to me you'll get the best of both worlds as long
as there is minimal room light. I have some LCD clocks
in my shack where you can read them without their
backlight as long as there is any lamp on in any part
of the room. What say beta's?

Any idea how the Lcd is backlit on the K3? I hate
pumpkin. Yeah I know it's the best color in all types
of light etc., but I would like to have some options.
I will be buying a K3 or a Flex 5000. It looks like
the K3 may be the one. I bought an Ft-2000 early.
I'll wait on the K3. I believe that it will be a very
good rig.
