Be aware that if you ship the radio, you will want to remove the heavy
knobs...
If the radio is man handled, the the moment of inertia, (for lack of a
better term), can get quite high when the package is dropped, and break
the encoder shaft.

I've been using a pair on my K3 since about 2011 and also have had a
pair installed on my K3S for just over a year now. Zero problems. The

opinion that these knobs cause long-term damage to the PTO shaft?
These knobs are quite heavy, compared to the factory ones.
Seems Elecraft used lightweight knobs for a reason.
Input appreciated.
