[Elecraft] KX2 VFO A Encoder

[Joe Stone (KF5WBO)]

Can anyone tell me which encoder the KX2 VFO A uses?  It's described as a
"Mechanical, sleeve bearing" encoder in the KX2 FAQ.  I'm looking for the
specific make and model.  Most of the Elecraft encoders are manufactured by
Bourns.  If you can't access the specific make and model, a close-up
photograph would be appreciated.  Is the encoder soldered to the main
circuit board?  Or does it have its own mini "daughter board" (like the K3
and KX3 VFO A encoder) which, in turn, plugs into the main circuit board
(making the encoder upgrade-able / field replaceable)?  Would someone please
measure its CPR (Counts Per Revolution)?  Set the VFO A rate to 1 Hz, note
the VFO A frequency and rotate the knob / encoder 360 degrees.  The CPR
corresponds to the increase / decrease in frequency (in Hz).

Much appreciated.
