I started the thread a few days ago as my first posting on the Elecraft Reflector and didn't appreciate the number of opthamologist hams using Elecraft. Thanks for the many inputs and it appears impractical to try and change the display. Personally, I find either green or orange as a background psychologically unpleasant; neither color has positive connotations. If blue impractcal I would like to see white on black similar to the older Yaesu rigs or an option in the IC 756 PRO III. Some colors are positive and others are negative. The images green and orange bring to mind are not positive (swamp, nausea, dull, boring) I don't foresee making any after-market changes here but hope Elecraft will offer some diplay options in the future. Selecting which display color option is obviously a very personal choice. It would be nice to have a choice.
