[Elecraft] K3 RF knob Broken

[wayne burdick]

Ron,

Just send a request to parts at elecraft.com and a new one will be sent 
out immediately. It's possible that either the set screw was 
over-tightened or that there was a defect not caught in QA. Either way, 
we'd like the broken one back so we can get it to the vendor for 
analysis.

This is a custom knob (like the others on the K3), so you won't be able 
to find an exact match elsewhere.

73,
Wayne
