I just noticed a problem with the main tuning knob on my K3 #1516 this morning. I noticed it when I was tuning around using the finger dimple. The odd thing is it only feels rough when you turn the knob counter-clockwise while applying slight pressure to facilitate using the finger dimple. I took the knob off, repositioned it(making sure it was clear of the front panel and not crooked, it wasn't) and still have the problem. It is bad enough that after several turns it causes the rotation to stick. Once again this only happens when turning counter-clockwise, with slight finger pressure in the dimple. What I find interesting is that I hardy use the tuning knob as I use an LP-Pan with PowerSDR and tune around with a mouse. I get the feeling that the problem is with the VFO A encoder. Any ideas?
