Regarding the Main VFO knob, when I finished my unit I found I had a felt washer left over. Re-read the instructions and found I only installed one washer...oops! However, my knob action is silky smooth, spins freely and yet has positive action and never counter-rotates when it stops. That's exactly how I like it so I'm not adding the second washer. Others may want more friction but this is perfect for me.
73, Bill W4ZV ----------------------------------- Very early on Wayne called for two felt washers behind the VFO A knob, but then dropped one as several people reported your experience. The K3 Assembly manual has called for only ONE washer to be installed behind each VFO knob since at least last October (Rev A of the manual that went out with the first customer shipments), and the parts list has called for only two washers, one for each VFO knob. Did I miss something? What document said to install two of them?
