Phil, in reality having a touch screen is not all that bad as you make out. You really need to try it. An advantage is that it reduces the clutter on the front panel of a rig, by assigning knobs/buttons to the display screen. The one used in the IC-7300 is really good - sensitive to the touch, but not quite as sensitive as some smartphones. The display of the 7300 is a major leap forward from older generation 7600, 7700 rigs. Very clear and responsive. And smear marks on the screen ? absolutely not - I have had my 7300 for 2 weeks now, and have not yet had the need to clean the display - the display is not that glossy mirror finish like smart phones have. Besides…I prod my touch phone FAR more than I touch the screen of my 7300, and I have no problem with finger marks on my phone….maybe once a month I might clean my phone with a lint cloth…no big deal. Perhaps I might clean my 7300 display once every 3 months at this rate…no biggie 73 John
