I sure wouldn't pay $200 for machined aluminum knobs. I could make my own if I wanted to, but don't see any need for it.
It's funny though, sometimes I think the K3 should have some kind of hardshell cover for the front panel. Then you could transport it without having to worry about banging up the fragile controls and LCD. Not that I transport the rig much... I guess I just think it would be cool to have a snap-on or hinged panel cover. 73, Drew AF2Z On Wed, 29 Jul 2009 22:08:06 -0700, Wayne N6KR wrote: >Hi John, > > >I suppose some operators might prefer a full set of machined knobs, >but you can imagine how the cost of K3 would have to increase given >$14 per small knob, and more for the larger ones.
