This can be a real problem. My hands are 3XL in size, and even Harley
Davidson doesn't carry riding gloves that fit me. But I realize that
the days of large radios are over, and I really miss my HRO-50 and my
Gonset GSB-100. At least the Argonaut VI does not require much use of
that small toggle switch in normal operation.
Until my Down East Microwave 6 and 2 meter transverters show up, I am on
2 meters with an old Yaesu FT-221R. That has a really good set of controls!
Then there is my digital camera...

As electronic components and the equipment built from them have got
smaller, the control interfaces also got smaller AND the capabilities
and control options got bigger. Problem is the human body, particularly
the hands and fingers have not been getting smaller.
