[Elecraft] Changing defective KX3 VFO B encoder

[Scott Manthe]

The VFO B encoder in my KX3 is defective. I've decided that I'd to try 
and change it myself. My question is has anyone removed rubber button 
membrane/pad from the  circuit board. I believe there is a Mylar sheet 
under the buttons, and it the button membrane seems to be adhered to the 
the  PCB. Is the button pad removable without damage to it or the Mylar 
membrane?

Thanks in advance- Scott, N9AA
