[Elecraft] Weighted Knobs in K3?

[K9ZTV]

Ed ...

They've been installed on my K3 for 9 years, and on my KX3 ever since it came out.  No problems so far. 

The company is 73cnc, by the way.  Not 73inc.

They no longer make the spun aluminum knobs for the K3, unfortunately.  Just the plain black ones.
