Perhaps Eric will clear this up but maybe my experience can
help with this issue.
The last time I sent one of my K3's back for some work - I
mentioned that those four encoders in that cluster had a noticeable and 
undesirable
'backlash' feel to them - could they do something about it?I was told by the 
Elecraft tech that they had supplied
several generations of those controls - I think - one was arbitrarily changed
by the supplier and another Elecraft changed suppliers, or part numbers - or
whatever. The bottom line being that not all encoders are alike. I had them
changed out for the latest generation which are just great. They were very
inexpensive - and very little labor - provided you already had the front cover
removed for other purposes.
I recommend the new controls and when I send my other K3
back in a few days for the new synthesizer, and a few other upgrades - I am
going to get the new controls on it as well.73, Bruce W8RA
