For K3: I have never had such a nicely balanced knob on such a silky smooth encoder.
Collins, yeah, I can see some advantages to the extra weight. That having been said - I do enjoy having the dimple on the outside of the knob, and some extra finger room around the VFO B area. http://www.zerobeat.net/wb8yqj/K3_4d.jpg Elecraft] Wow! Nice Knobs :-) Tom W8JI w8ji at w8ji.com Thu Apr 22 18:17:51 EDT 2010 Maybe I'm missing something??? Doesn't just sliding the K3 knob on so it just kisses the felt washers do the same thing? The K3 knob seems plenty heavy to me. I was thinking though, if extra weight was needed, I would take it to a local crankshaft shop and have a few slugs of mallory metal inserted. A slug of mallory metal is only $40. :-) 73 Tom ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
