I sold my '817 the week after I returned from
Dayton and saw the KX3 for the first time.
2nd step was to get a KX3 on order.
Main complaint with the Yaesu was its Rx. I never
dared to hook it to a big antenna.
2nd complaint was the horrendous =BDA current drain
in receive.

Even if it WERE to become an option, the LAST
color I'd want on the KX3 screen would be blue.
Save the multi-colors for Christmas trees and
leave the KX3 screen alone.
