[Elecraft] K2 vfo knob

[Don Wilhelm]

Anthony,

I suspect you have the 'new' knob.  The one I am referring to is the 
same one used on the KX3 and has a rubber ring.

The knob previously used on the K2 has become unavailable.

If so, contact support and request 2 additional felt washers and stack them.
I have not yet had a chance to check out a K2 with the new encoder and 
that new knob.

73,
