k2 encoder dial

Finally recieved my missing parts for the control board and fired up the K2 for the first test. All
the relays, switches etc. work fb. But I can't change freqs when I turn the main dial. The rit works  ok
No error messages. Guess I will have to take the front board out and recheck everything..

Make sure the "dial lock" function is not engaged. If it is, the decimal
point to the right of the 1 kHz digit will be flashing.  If that  is not
the case, then perhaps the encoder is not wired correctly, or there is a
solder splash or something similar.

Try direct frequency entry.  To do this, press BAND+ and BAND-
simultaneously, release them, and use the 0-9 buttons for direct entry.
use 4 digits for 80, 60  and 40 meters, 5 digits for 30 meters and
higher,  leading 0 plus 4 digits for 160 meters.
