I have set of the bronze knobs on my K3 #4165, and love them. I have found two principal consequences of this knob change, and an indirect benefit.
1 - The radio looks a heck of a lot better IMHO. 2 - The radio tunes much easier and has a more of a "quality" feel about it, kind of like tuning a 75A4. I find that I use these knobs more and my pan-adapter less for basic frequency control. As a side benefit they seem to really irritate the Elecraft koolaid drinkers on the list, whom I'm sure will explain in great detail why the original knobs could not possibly be improved upon. 73 Jack KZ5A On 12/22/2010 10:50 AM, John Huggins, kx4o wrote: > All, > > Does anyone know of any issues the extra weight of the "weighted spinner > knobs" such as these... > > http://www.73cnc.com/73cnc/elecraft.html > > ...might cause the bearing points of the tuning shaft in the K2 or K3? > > Thanks. > > John > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
