Hi Kelvin
Looks an interesting and exciting rig. But only for base station use.
It is a shame about the keypad.
You didn't mention if the 5 has a marker on it?
The K3 doesn't have such an indicator, and it also has several keys very
close to it. Although this isn't an issue for entering frequencies, it can
be when swapping VFO, AGC/PRE-AMP/FILTER/ATTENUATOR settings and others.
Having said that, the filters are automatically selected as the bandpass is
set with rotary controls.
I have never come up with a top-end rig with a decent keypad.
