Need a tuning knob for K2

[Frank Krozel]

I am looking for a tuning knob for a K2 SN 5630
If I recall there were two different sizes of shafts, this would be the second (maybe current) size.

This is SN

Frank,

Do you have the new encoder?  I don't know which SN they were started. 
That is the key to which knob you need.  If the knob is off, lift the
fiber washers and check to see if there is a green tab in the hole to
the right of the encoder shaft.  If the hole is empty, you have the new
encoder.
Order the new knob from Elecraft - they no longer have the older knob.
With the new knob, you need 3 fiber washers stacked.

Thanks Don, will check today.

I also need to figure out which K2 need those small 3/8”x3/8” rubber spacers in-between the PC boards without taking the front panel off.

Frank,

Just take the top cover off and look between the upper 2D connectors and
the Front Panel board.
