wb8yqj suggested: "For K3: I have never had such a nicely balanced knob on such a silky smooth encoder."
<snip> This comment was meant to pertain to the STOCK K3 knob and encoder - so sweet. I am suggesting that additional weight would be of no advantage for K3 as it may be, and in my experience has been, with Collins mechanical VFO rigs. I just remembered what that knob reminds me of - 1980's Icom 720 and 740. Look below for a photo of the stock K3 knob with an aluminum spinner taped on the outside and then a fingerdimple.com finger dimple for the finishing touch. http://www.zerobeat.net/wb8yqj/K3_4d.jpg http://www.fingerdimple.com/ [Elecraft] Wow!
