KX3 Encoder Upgrade

Richard Thorpe-2
Does anyone out there know if the Elacraft encoder upgrade kit for the KX3 comes with the allen wrench to remove and install the knob.  Thank you.

I don't think so -- you get an allen key with the KX3 itself (both factory and kit versions), as this is needed to adjust the drag on the tuning knob. If you have lost your key, when you order the encoder upgrade, in the comments field ask them to add an allen key to your order (mail parts at electraft.com to get the part number).

Hi Richard,
The Allen wrench is a 5/64, which you could get at a local hardware/tool  
store. The encoder upgrade does not come with an Allen wrench, my upgrade kit
 did not.
