[Elecraft] No audio from speaker on K2

[John]

Ken,

While your trouble shooting the audio problem, go ahead and order a couple 
of headphone jacks from Elecraft. If the jack is not the problem it won't 
hurt to have a spare on hand. I've had to replace the jack twice in one of 
my K2's. It didn't make sense to me either, one day it worked, the next day 
it didn't. If there is a weak point in the K2/K1 audio hardware, it's the 
phone jack.
