Hi Most of the knob changes have been to the Yaesu knob. It works well and is heavy enough but looks out of place to me. I have seen a Kenwood knob on a K2 that looked better. It was gray and had the finger dimple and fit better than the Yaesu. To me it looked more like it belonged on the K2. I don't remember which Kenwood the knob was from but the owner said it cost about $35. I like the K2 knob with the finger dimple add on. It looks good and works well. You can get the finger dimple from Elecraft for about $5. I have put them on everything K2, K1 and even the KX1.

But the more I'm around other rigs, the less satisfied I am with the stock K2 tuning knob Do you have a recommended favorite that is plug-to-plug exchangeable and available. That is, I've heard praise of the Yeasu knob, but also that it isn't available from any supplier anymore. Also, I read one article about a substitution which required an additional "fiber" washer - don't want that. The Argo V knob looks very similar, anyone know if that will work? 73, Paul _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
