Mike,

Yep I contacted Elecraft Parts too and they are sending me a new knob at no cost.

Don,
I did take the knob off and test the pot and it is fine, so the knob is definitely the problem and I'm getting it fixed via an excellent Elecraft support policy from a few years ago. I'm guessing, but I'll bet the other manufacturers won't do that.

Thanks Elecraft.

I just contacted them this week for a broken AF knob and they said they were sending a couple at no cost.

Linas and all,

I don't know if the policy is still in place, but several years ago, Eric stated that defective knobs would be replaced at no cost. Contact Elecraft support.

The same is here. It is the crack in the knob, I can see it. You can try to tighten up the screw a bit but not too much not to finaly break the knob. If it is not completely loose you still can find the end stop while turning very gently and slowly. The best way surely is to get the knob replaced :)
