I'm back from a soggy weekend.? Went camping with the youth group from church, it rained the entire time and some younger boys who had a bad tent ended up completely soaked at night.? So we left early and I didn't get time to play pota.? Tried to do some FT8 at night, but I found my RTC battery must have died as the time was way off, and there was no cell service to get it synced, so not a great radio weekend.? Oh well.? Anyway, Peter, yes there's lots of other simple ways to fix this.? I have the tools to do PCB design, and it's a fun side project.? If I order enough boards they will be very inexpensive and no wire cutting needed.? But your solution would work just fine as well.? YO8RC, that's the encoder I had decided to use, so that's great to know!? When I was playing with my radio in my tent this weekend, I counted about 30 'clicks' for 360degree, which doesn't really match the 20 of the encoder we both are looking at.? But I'll give it a go and see what happens.? I should be able to place the PCB order today, but to save costs I'm going with slow boat shipping so it will be about 10+ days before I get the parts in the mail.? Stay tuned!
