Mike,

Of course there are those radios without knobs,  so it doesn't matter.

I do not understand radio manufacturers. It always seemed to me that the basic design of radios was 90° out of phase. I'd like to have a rig that sat on its end, rather like a computer tower. That would give a much smaller footprint, thus take up much less desk space. The tuning knob could be in the center near the bottom and the frequency display placed at eye level. Perhaps using that as a basis for design, manufacturers could produce ambidextrous radios.

Otherwise a southpaw can turn his radio upside-down (or stand on his head).
