I'd previously mentioned getting a roll cage for the new FT-710 radio. Though I'd considered that it might interfere with getting my hands on the buttons and knobs, I shouldn't have worried. With the flared front it is completely out of the way for operating. Here's a close-up of the right side, which by far has more controls.
Need to cut down the box now, to make a cap to fit over the entire front panel. I won't be taking it to the field often, but that one more layer of protection is worth it. Especially since the box the rails came in is exactly the right size (funny how that always seems to work...), and it's right here already.
