I wasn't much interested in paying $100 for a replacement K2 knob nor could I 
find a source for the Yaesu FT-100 tuning knob.....so, I found on eBay a new 
knob for the Yaesu FT-450 which fit perfectly on the K2 and cost $10. However, 
the FT-450 tuning knob was a bit small so back to eBay (gota love it!) and I 
found listed the rubber band for the ICOM 718 for $6.

Well, after much grunding and pushing I got the 718 rubber band over the FT-450 
knob. I really like the feel of this setup over the original K2 and the finger 
hole is "real" not some fake stick-on.

I think it looks better than the orignal K2 as well.

I don't have a personal webpage these days to post a jpeg of this setup, but if 
you wanna see what this setup looks like on my K2, send me an email at 
k6...@yahoo.com and I will send you a photo.
