I love my KX2 but the main tuning knob has always been a problem for me.
It’s just a tad too small and not easy to spin rapidly.
I found a very nice aluminum knob for the KX2 being sold on eBay by a gentleman in Winterport,ME.
The tracking item nr. is: 264113321673.
The knob costs $24.95 shipped, is CNC machined aluminum and is black in color….not exactly cheap but worth every penny IMHO.
I just put it on my KX2 and tuning is now a dream…it feels like a much larger knob and the finger dimple is larger than the stock KX2 knob which allows for a nice fit.
It also fits the KX1 for all of the KX1 users out there.
A very nice addition to my KX2.
Now, if only Wayne can find a ball bearing rotary encoder for the KX2 all would be well in the world (grin).
Enjoy those Elecraft radios.
