Don,

If you have the new encoder (with the encoder board), you have the 6mm 
shaft.  The old encoders have a 1/4 inch shaft.

You can tell which encoder you have by removing the VFO knob.  Look to 
the right of the encoder shaft and you will find a small hole in the 
front panel metalwork.  If that hole is empty, you have the new 
encoder.  If instead you see a green pin in that hole, you have the old 
encoder.
