[Elecraft] K2 main encoder wanted

[Don Wilhelm]

Bob,

You can get the new encoder from Elecraft - it is p/n K2ENCASY.
It contains the new encoder, a new knob and several other components as 
well as the encoder board.

If this is your only option, be aware that the spacing between the new 
encoder board and the back of the Control Board is critical.
You must flush trim the leads on the Control Board where it can contact 
the encoder board and also flush trim the encoder board after it is 
assembled.  Flush trimming means really flush - diagonal cutters are not 
sufficient.

You will also have to enlarge the hole for the encoder in the Front 
Panel metalwork a bit.  A knife run around the hole a couple times will 
allow the encoder shaft adequate clearance.

You might want to put a piece of "fish paper" between the encoder board 
and the Control Board.

73,
Don W3FPR
