Very true. I just tried to get every important missing option and the
upgrades.
I'm asking myself it it makes sense to replace the front panel, as it
seems to be impossible to repair or clean the soft knobs. Or am I
missing something?

Having been down this path with another company and having to plan for
end-of-life support for products of that company, I would caution that hoarding
parts, sucks up and will rapidly deplete any inventory planned. Although I
understand the desire to keep your radio operational, without parts at the
service location then radios can’t be repaired.
Personally I would prefer to have the parts at the service location as opposed
to them sitting in some unknown hams desk drawer. Those in the desk drawer
won’t likely do anyone any good.

Scott has a great point. With radio models changing & out-dating as they do,
please recommend, if you can, what K3 (and particularly what K3s)parts would
be good to have for either the future or the future owner.
Only Elecraft would know what parts are either failing or dwindling in supply
and they may not want to let that information out.
Thank you,

Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Parts
I'm thinking it might be a good idea to stock up on K3 parts I might need in
the future, when they may not be available. Two likely candidates are the
main VFO encoder and the AF/RF gain pots. Any other suggestions?
