Hi,
I tune with my right forefinger and I have the same problem, although not
too seriously. Coming to the K3 from an ICOM IC-718 I had grown accustomed
to using my thumb in the swiveling dimple on that machine's tuning knob. I
really miss that. I would pay real dollars for somebody to come up with a
YeaComWood quality tuning knob that would fit the K3.
