(Snip)


The knobs in the bad batch will crack/split with just a slight
tightening of their set screws.  That's what I encountered.  I've
installed many equipment knobs over the years and was careful to not
over tighten the sets screws per Elecraft's instructions.  
Never-the-less the old ones cracked.  Elecraft replaced them and so far
all is well.

Amazing, does anyone know the serial number range that these brittle knobs were shipped?

Are we talking about the four identical knobs but not the VFO's?

So far I have had no need to remove or adjust these.
