Guys,

Thank you for all your advice.

I have sent off an email to Elecraft & will wait for their response & my hunch was too that the encoder is at fault. I was thinking of swapping them around, however, my K3 is a factory built K3 (I wanted one which would work straight out of the box so to say as I have such little time these days with work to enjoy building the K3 (I might build a K1 tho)) and I'm not sure if I can go & change components around it would invalidate the warranty so I'm not going to do this unless I get the go ahead from Elecraft.

Once again, thanks for all your replies, very much appreciated & has put me at somewhat ease.

B and see if the problem "moves."  If it does, it's a bad encoder.

As an Elecraft (R) outsider, but K3 owner (actually, I own two and a
K2), I would say it looks like Elecraft had a short-term "bad run" of
encoder assemblies.

I suggest contacting K3 support.
