[Elecraft] K3 knob on a K2

[David Lankshear]

Tom, I found the K2's knob wouldn't fit the VFO B shaft as it was too small.

Thus I'd conclude that the K3's knob would be a loose fit on the K2's shaft.  You could probably shim the shaft with some thin metal - like that you'd get from a drinks can.  Unless shimmed, I would guess it might not sit quite straight on the K2 encoder shaft, but with a little work, it should come right.

I have the Yaesu knob on my K2 and it's a very nice fit and has a better feel to it.

Hope that helps.

Does the K3 knob work/fit on the K2?  It is pretty slick looking and would
be an easier option than the Yaesu knobs I've seen people getting...
