I managed to lose one of the black Thumbnuts on my KX2 that holds the back panel in place. Does anyone know of a UK source to avoid me paying US postage from Elecraft?
I have had a look on ebay but most similar nuts are Metric or come from China.
The spec is in Imperial: 4/40 3/8D, 1/4L, Elecraft part number E700338
Thanks Neil M0NJH
You could try using the reflector search facility Neil

My maths textbooks had the answers at the back so you knew if you got it right.
The best ones were when the answer at the back was wrong.
If you find mistakes in Knuth’s “The Art of Computer Programming” series he sends you a cheque. I think my copy of Searching and Sorting is old enough to have errors in it.
I’m sure he’ll send you your cheque for two bob in reward.
Thought the second line was:
‘Teach a man to fish and he’ll sit in a boat and drink beer for life’.
Thanks Alex - as I suspected it is difficult to get the imperial measurement nuts in the UK, so have ordered from China.
