[Elecraft] K2 knob replacement

[Bob]

Well for the K3 either.  I thought the price for the pair was totally nuts!  
That was up until
I got to use one.  Ordered a few days later with no regrets since either.  Had 
the original
all black ones.  When the variety with the insert became available I replaced 
the all black
with them.   That was a pure eye candy decision. It it just reminded me of the 
Collins I
wanted and the Heath SB's I had. .

The K2 has a knob from an old Ampex tape machine

Would I want a heavy knob to carry to a SOTA site, no.  But I don't do that so 
maybe.
Well, most likely I would/will, just a matter of time and when I have cash 
burning a hole
in my pocket.

Kind of like food, you have to try it to know...

73,
