Hi, Nigel!
I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but your KX1 was kitted with the
wrong type of encoder for the VFO control. The normal type of encoder
has a blue body, the reverse type has a white body. Lisa at Elecraft
has spent the last two weeks trying to contact all recent purchasers of
the KX1 kits to warn them of this error; apparently she did not find you
in time.
Please contact Scott in the Elecraft Parts Department,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or (831) 662-8345, and tell him you need a new blue
KX1 encoder; a new one will be shipped to you immediately.
You will need to remove the white encoder. The easiest method to do
this is to use heavy duty wire cutters to clip the leads and mounting
tabs to remove the body of the encoder, then use conventional mmethods
to desolder the remaining leads.
Everyone at Elecraft apologizes to you for the inconvenience this is
causing you.

I was surprised to find on my recently completed KX1 that clockwise rotation
of the VFO knob Decreases the frequency and moves Up the menu list. Is
there a way to reverse this so that clockwise rotation Increases the
frequency?
