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 Señior 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?

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.
