DDS VFO Synth display choice?


 

Hello all,
?
Some while ago I built the DDS VFO and I can say it works very nicely! Only change I mad was to use a green/black LCD module, then I did not need the backlight. Good for QRP /P operations.
?
I am thinking of connecting the DDS into my new homebrew TXVR that I am building for backpack portable using.
But here is my problem. The LCD display module is 70mm X 24mm and the mounting board even bigger.
That takes up lots of space on the front panel of my small TXVR! And to be honest I do not need all the two lines of characters. Just need the frequency display
?
I really want something smaller. I have searched and all the Hitachi HD44780-compatible displays are this large size.
Is there any way to use a smaller display? Even if I loose some info. As above i just want the frequency digit.
Does not have to be pin compatible because I can make wire connection adjustments.
?
Any ideas?
