Same here. I have a set of 6 pushbuttons in a circle with
indicator lights to indicate which one is in use. They control
beverages at 60 degree azimuth intervals. It is much more intuitive
where I am pointing than a rotary switch. I also have
random access, instead of sequential access. I have a 7th
pushbutton in the center for an omni antenna. The advantage
of this over a rotary switch in a contest is huge.
