Hi!
Many thanks to Duncan and Jim for their quick replies.

This 'dotchart' solution worked fine and I got what I wanted :) However,
I still wonder why the same idea does not work with lattice (e.g. using
'scales=list(y=list(cex=log(abs(kedf$Freq))+1))'

Seem a bit more complex, but I'll give it a try.

This is also a nice idea to scale the dots. Thanks for pointing this out.
Best,
