Tim,
Sorry, but I do not have that information. You can get the replacements
from Elecraft parts, but as far as alternatives (detented encoders), I
have no idea.
Since the controls are encoders rather than potentiometers, I think
using something detented would not be the best thing. The detent is
mechanical and is not likely to line up with the firmware decoding of
the encoder rotation.
Of course, I am thinking of a 'center detent', but if you are thinking
of those awful encoders that have a detent at each movement of the knob,
count me out, those are terrible to use IMHO.
You can get stock replacements for the encoders from Elecraft.

Hi Don,
Do you have a manufacturer/part number for the encoders used in the KX3? That
information doesn’t appear to be in the schematics. Based on personal
preference, I’d like to replace at least some of the encoders in my unit with
alternatives that that have detents as well as less mechanical play in the
shaft.
