[Elecraft] KX1 Ext. Speaker

[Leigh L Klotz, Jr.]

I used a Radio Shack 273-1380, whichi is 1K ohms to 8 ohms.  I hooked 
the 8 ohm side to the plug on the PodWave and the 1K ohm side to the 
audio amplifier PC board.  I outboarded it with leads through holes in 
the plastic case.  I clipped the center tap on the 1K ohm side.  I spent 
some time looking for a small SMD audio transformer in the Mouser 
catalog but couldn't find one that wasn't 1:1.  There is enough room 
inside the case for a small transformer.
