That is the old style knob same as on my old K2 and the one I just built The new one as per the eratta (that came out in December as I recall).Has a knob like the kx3 metal with a dimple and rubber tire.

Hi Harry, I have my second K2 which I got in the middle of January. Both the knob on my earlier one, from June 2016 and the one from January 2017 is the same, and it fits perfectly. The knob is the updated one which also ships with the new encoder assembly. Hope that helps, Cameron - AF7DK/GM7LQR From: Elecraft <[email protected]> on behalf of Harry Yingst via Elecraft <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 12, 2017 7:26 PM To: Elecraft Reflector Subject: [Elecraft] Has anyone recently got a K2 Kit with the NEW main Knob, Does it Fit? When I ordered my K2 (end of January) it came in with the old style knob not the one that was in the Errata sheet (same style as the KX3). After a series of calls and e-mails I finally got Elecraft to send the knob only to find that it does not fit correctly as the encoder shaft is too long so it sticks out from the front panel and does not engage on the felt washer. Additionally the knob is also too large (diameter in the rear where it flairs out so it it did engage the felt washer it would rub on the Display bezel. So my question is to those who recently got a K2 (NOT the KX2). Did you receive a KX3 style Knob as per the Errata Sheet and if so does it fit correctly?
