Positive interlocks provided by the harness connections make the On/Off and Send/Transmit controls fail safe and intuitive. As long as your batteries are fresh, which is easy to determine from the display, you have confidence of what mode you are in without needing to look at anything. The downside is that when you turn the unit off it is either hanging lose around your neck or you have to stow it away. I consider this a small price to pay to instantly know the unit is in send mode. While in search mode, like most modern peeps, it provides intuitive clues about how to close the distance and its use will be familiar to anyone who is in the backcountry. Maybe not the best on the market but certainly an equal to all the other models I have used. Note that I have not tried any of the gazillion $ units now on the market.
