The AF knob loosened today. When I finally found an alan small enough to tighten it the knob split before it was even snugged up. Not cranked. Wasn't there a thread about this about the time I purchased my K3? Is this a common problem? Is there an improved knob available? I just sent Elecraft an e mail so I hope to get their reply Monday.
