[Elecraft] Audio levels in K2

[W9DHI]

We've been over this topic many times.  If you go thru the reflector
archives you find that most of the low audio problems are caused by
improperly setting the AGC during alignment.  A quick test is to shut off
the AGC by pressing PRE/ATT and AGC together.  If the volume comes shooting
up the AGC is set wrong and is way too aggressive.

I use a pair of Sony 32 ohm phones and have
plenty of audio out of the K2.
