[Elecraft] Installing K2 Internal Mic Adaptor

Roy,

I would suggest removing the capacitor and adding the 82 mHy shielded 
choke that is included with the A to B mod kit.  Yes, you will also have 
to add a 47k resistor in series with C24 (see the K2 A to B 
instructions).  That will make the sidetone smoothing equal to the post 
3000 SN K2s.

The 82 mHy inductor will be positioned high enough on the Control Board 
that it is out of the way for the installation of the IMA.

73,
Don W3FPR
