See the K2 manual errata on the manual pages that was just updated...there
was a change in the jack wiring as the jack has changed apparently.

Subject: [Elecraft] Speaker problem

Just got K2 5848 complete. Everything looks good except the speakers (int or
ext) do not work. Headphones work great. I double-checked the wiring, and I
have
not reversed the speaker wires. 

When I removed the speaker connector, I noticed that there is only about
0.12
volts at P5 (audio) connector on the control board, whether I have the
headphone
plugged-in or not, and regardless of volume setting. Makes me think I have a
bad
headphone jack switch. I have heard about these going bad. Is is common to
see
bad ones from the factory? Or should I be looking for something else?

Thanks and 73,

Tom KG3V
