I would like to feel some tactile feedback when using the
RIT/XIT knob to make gross changes in frequency. If there was a
detent for each change in frequency, then I would know how much
to turn the knob without having to look at the display.
The same feature would be nice on the other encoders --
Shift/width/speed/pwr and the two VFO knobs.
I don't know about the practicability of getting encoders with
tactile feedback.

While I seem to be able to adapt to many things that bug
others, and I had adapted to the original knob/ring, I really
do like the feel of this one. There's a significant increase in
the tactile sense on my fingers, and I seem to be able to set a
frequency to 1 Hz more easily. It's worth the $16 + USPS
priority to me.
