While I sure as heck do not even know a tiny fraction of the users
here, I have had several that I do know and who have gotten their radios "of late" cite this condition. In kit form, you can swap A and B and see if the problem "moves." If it does, it's a bad encoder. As an Elecraft (R) outsider, but K3 owner (actually, I own two and a K2), I would say it looks like Elecraft had a short-term "bad run" of encoder assemblies. I suggest contacting K3 support. de Doug KR2Q _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Guys,
Thank you for all your advice. I have sent off an email to Elecraft & will wait for their response & my hunch was too that the encoder is at fault. I was thinking of swapping them around, however, my K3 is a factory built K3 (I wanted one which would work straight out of the box so to say as I have such little time these days with work to enjoy building the K3 (I might build a K1 tho)) and I'm not sure if I can go & change components around it would invalidate the warranty so I'm not going to do this unless I get the go ahead from Elecraft. Once again, thanks for all your replies, very much appreciated & has put me at somewhat ease. 73's Berni DOUGLAS ZWIEBEL wrote: > While I sure as heck do not even know a tiny fraction of the users > here, I have had several that I do know and who have gotten their > radios "of late" cite this condition.
