[Elecraft] K3 RF knob Broken

[Jim]

Ron, the AF gain knob fell off here same way. Emailed Elecraft parts and
they sent me one out in a very timely manner.

 

Hope you are enjoying your K3. Still enjoying mine & the nice rig you sold
me.

Has anyone other then me had one of the inter knobs for the RF or AF gain
break?  Came in, turned on the rig and reached up and turned the RF gain
down and low and behold the little knob fell off the shaft.  It was broken
right where one of the set screws was located.  I see there is no brass
bushing in the knob for the setscrew to be threaded into.  Do you know where
some better quality ones can be purchased?
