Kx3

I was shocked by the introduction of the k3x prototype. I hadn't realized that ham radio was going in that direction, eventually a 160-10 iphone? I was encouraged by the Yaesu R5000 big, lots of hobby knobs. I must get with the times, small and portable handheld ip radios, the future.

Why should you be shocked that a portable radio is... portable! In the video, Wayne describes it as a TRF - Trail Friendly Radio, try that lugging an FT-5000 on your next hike. :)

I don't think its one way or the other. I think both have their place.
I must admit though, I was stunned by how big the top end Yaesus are.
