Bill,

I fear if detented encoders would be used, there would be many who would complain about the lack of analog control between the encoder steps. I for one prefer the non-detented controls.

I am quite happy with the knobs that Elecraft supplies, although I might
like a ball bearing dimple.

Given that most of the adjustments are digital in nature, what I would
really like is tactile feedback whenever the radio moves to the next
step, like I have on the heater controls in my car, and have had on the
controls for some stereo equipment. For example, I could then adjust
RIT/XIT by feel without having to look at the radio. I don't know if the
many-step encoders Elecraft uses can be had with tactile feedback, but I
would be very nice.
