That was not a correct price. He must have thought you were requesting
something else. The rubber keypad is certainly much, much lower in price.
Note that removal of the old keypad and installation of the new one
involves making sure all of the adhesive from the original keypad is
removed from the pcb, and that the button surface contacts on the PC
board are clean and free from contaminants, hand oils etc. We usually
recommend this is done at the factory.
Please email howard(at)elecraft.com for the P3 keypad cost. I'll make
sure I talk to him about this first.

Seems just a tad steep, considering you can get a new P3 (kit) for $699.95.

Hi, sorry to ask again, has anybody got a part number for just the rubber
buttons for the P3 pan adaptor. Got a reply from Elecraft (listed below)but
the cost is prohibitive if I have to buy the entire front panel. Richard
was kind enough to answer me promptly but $637.10 is a bit out of the
question for really one rubber insert button which is my requirement. I
have heard of minimum breakdown part supply but for an item of this nature,
I was expecting $15 or so. I know the entire keypad button set for the K3
was only $20 or so from my K3's previous owner so was expecting a similar
pricing. I think it may be a part number that is available and maybe some
confusion on elecrafts side. Does anybody have a individual part number
breakdown of the P3? The rubber button has a slight defect in it and I
just want the unit to look like new which it will with the button replaced.
cheers
Brenton
