So it's not just those who had knobs from a bad batch earlier in the year.

When I wrote earlier that I didn't have confidence that I wouldn't
eventually join the club someone replied that if I was concerned I should
just ask Elecraft support for a replacement set. My response was that I
didn't think it would be fair since I haven't actually had a failure yet,
and if all owners of older K3s requested new knobs it might cause Elecraft a
bit of a problem. But if it's more likely to be when, rather than if, I join
the fractured knob club perhaps I ought to ask for some spares.
