[Elecraft] K2 knob replacement

[Dick, K2ZR]

Review the link: http://www.73cnc.com/product_p/k2blkmain.htm
These folks make a great weighted knob for the K2. You can often pick it up
at hamfest where they are in the flea market. They generally offer a show
special for less. My guess is they will be at Dayton since trhey are located
in Ohio. 
I've been a happy user.

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...
