KX2 tunning knob

[Tomasz Pabich]

Because original knob for KX2 is quite useless I made new one. Inspiration
was photo of FT-817 knob found somewhere on internet. It looks ergonomic so
i made them from scratch.

Few tests, and couple of versions convince me that this knob "make a job"
:-)

Silly question because I am not at the same location as the radio... How is
the tuning knob attached to the radio? Friction fit? Grub screw?

This looks very nice Tomasz!

Hello Tim.

Same way as the original one. Its only inserted on encoder axis. In
original there is additional tightening piece of metal "ring", I printed my
one in way that they tightly fits, its also light so they dont need any
grub screw.
