One. Someone could create a new printed circuit board that puts the connector on the opposite side and properly deals with all the wires
Or
Two. ?Remove the existing encoders, probably destroying them in the process, and solder in new ?encoders with a bit of some height to their positioning enough to make the correct clearance.?
Or
Three. ?You might get a little more clearance by sanding off the top of the plastic of the Jack

I fully agree?with you.
The execution of the encoder board is pure stupidity.

I just got my sBitx and the screen was a bit loose/something rattling inside. So I opened the case and found some loose screws (immediately fixed) and the same problem with the encoder board. Before I read this post and the answers, I also believed this to be an error. Well, I dont like how the board is mounted and how the encoder shafts are slightly skewed to the inside which I now cannot unsee.
So I desoldered the connector and extended it a bit. A bit hacky, but it works and the encoder board is now nicely straight, everything fine :-)
Now I only have to test the whole thing!
