Great Upgrade  Time owned: 0 to 3 months
Installed this accessory and it has improved the ease of tuning. Installation is simple. Use a very thin small jewelers flat blade screw driver to help in removing the rubber cover from the original knob. Also make absolutely certain there is no burr remaining in the Kranker Knob set screw hole before you install over the VFO shaft, the fit is tight as it should be.

Great accessory!  Time owned: 0 to 3 months
I purchased this via Buy It Now auction and shipment was very quick. Great instructions were provided along with an allen key necessary for removing the stock knob and installing the Kranker knob. Installation was quick and easy and makes it much easier to cover some real estate while tuning around.
