But do the knobs actually exist, or are they just on your PC's
monitor?

Light years different.

I have two radios right here. They both have giant dimpled knobs. Both
knobs have adjustable "drag" in fact. The computer generates the text
and helps me log. I'm constantly tweaking real knobs while chasing
faint traces on the waterfall.


I notice you really didn't answer the question.


You're trippin'. I have an R75 on top of a K3. Orange dials with gray
numbers. The Icom's on 10140 USB; the Elecraft's on 18100 RTTY. They are
real three dimensional physical radios connected to massive amounts of
wire covering the sky above my house.


That's all you had to say.
