YES!
Wish the Eagle had that.
The Orion was the nicest radio I ever owned (which doesn't necessarily mean
a thing), but I have owned a K3.
I have yet to own a Flex and the way the Euro keeps falling against the
dollar, I probably never will.

What's nice about the Orion menus is that the screen is big enough to
display all the menu settings for each category at once and you can quickly
page through the various categories.  On the K3, the display is so tiny, you
can only display a single menu setting at one time, not an entire category,
so you end up searching and searching for the menu setting you need as you
scroll through all of them.
