Buck,
(and everyone else)

I just inspected the knob and sure enough where one of the set screws goes into the knob is a fine crack the full length of the knob, top to bottom so to speak. So I guess I'm off to Elecraft to see if the knobs are still free or not.

I vaguely recall reading about this on the list a few years back but had no problem with it then so it didn't stick in my memory.

Thanks.

If you look at the knob carefully, you will probably discover it is cracked.  Request a replacement from Elecraft.

It's taken me 8 years to finally "break" something.  Well it's not really broken it just doesn't indicate right.

The smallest AF knob (the one furthest "out" from the front panel) does not stop at the min and max detent stops.  It still adjusts the volume up and down ok but it does not indicate properly.  Additionally it will go "all the way around" to adjust the volume.  The interior sub receiver AF knob (the biggest and closest to the radio front panel) works fb.

Is there any way to fix the smallest AF knob without changing the pot or is that the only fix.  Thanks in advance.
