I may have some wear on my encoder button in the P3. The encoder itself seems fine, when I rotate it, it performs perfectly. When I push on it, often the marker does not move or, it moves the frequency part way. If I hold the knob and apply a little downward pressure when pushing it usually works. This leads me to think the switch has an issue.
Because this happens often but not continuously, I don't think it has anything to do with the logic circuitry and the downward pressure usually does the trick. It seems mechanical in origin. I thought I might spray Deoxit to help with the contact if build-up on it is the issue but I don't know how that might affect the encoder function. I should open the case and assure the solder connections are intact. Before contacting Elecraft for a new encoder, has anyone had this issue and resolved it?
