[Elecraft] KX1 Tuning Direction?

[Don Wilhelm]

Nigel,

Do you have the encoder mounted on the wrong side of the board?  Since all
the wiring is on the PC board, that is the only way I can think of to change
the encoder direction.

That is not normal - check to be certain you do not have a solder bridge or
unsoldered connection somewhere:  At the encoder Z1,RP3 or U1 pins 3 and 4.
Be certain you have a path with about 10k resistance between encoder pin 1
and U1 pin 3 and a similar path from encoder pin 3 to U1 pin 4.

I guess it is possible that you could have a bum decoder with the outputs
swapped internally, but I have not yet heard of such an occurrance.

73,
Don W3FPR
