Elecraft is a one of a kind company. The owner was on the reflector Sunday
evening reassuring everyone that the cracked knobs will be replaced. I sent
an e-mail off to Parts Sunday evening and received an automatic reply but
more importantly I received a personalized e-mail sent at 6:52 AM west
Just checked mine, s/n 1544 (vintage 2009) and sure enough it's cracked
too...

Hi all,
Suddenly I discovered that there is a big crack in the VFO B knob extending
from the set screw. Anybody heard about that one before? Rig has been
indoors with controlled temperature for years and never gets moved. I have a
more modest radio for that purpose (IC7200).

My VFO B knob cracked within 6 months of assembly. It was replaced immediately
under warranty and no problems since.

I discovered a crack in my VFO B knob several months ago. I mended it with a
bit of super glue (cyaonacrylate). My serial range is 33xx, I've had it
for a few years.

Hi Knut,
The sudden response to your post prompted me to take out the flashlight.
Mine has a hairline crack from the setscrew back towards the front panel.
The crack is not present from the setscrew to the face of the knob. My unit
is S/N 22xx from 2008.

My K3 is S/N 642. I just looked as closely as I can at my age under
good light, and detect no VFO B knob cracks. I did lose the AF/RF gain
knobs and the ones below it, Elecraft replaced them immediately. I
think tomorrow, when there's daylight, I'll check all the other knobs,
but I really

We did. It's impossible trace individual plastic knobs by batch, so we just
replace them as they come up.

When I ordered a replacement I was charged $6, but probably didn't
mention anything about my original one cracking.
