Hello Don,How difficult is it to replace the encoders? Is there a document that describes the procedure?73,Gary K9GS -------- Original message --------From: Don Wilhelm <[email protected]> Date: 1/26/20 8:15 PM (GMT-06:00) To: Gary K9GS <[email protected]>, [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] VFO B dead Gary,If you are not afraid of disassembling your K3, remove the Front Panel assembly and swap the encoder A with encoder B. If the problem follows the encoder, then order a new encoder from Elecraft. If that is not the problem, contact [email protected] for additional checks.73,Don W3FPROn 1/26/2020 5:34 PM, Gary K9GS wrote:> I just had my K3 in for service and a checkup. I REALLY hope I can avoid sending it in again. The VFO B knob is completely dead. Turning it does not tune VFO B. Also tried the config screen...same thing.I suspect the encoder is bad but it showed no symptoms prior..otherwise I would have had it changed out when I sent it in.All other front panel functions appear to work.Any ideas?73,Gary K9GS ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected]
