[Elecraft] K-3 External Speaker Issue

[Mike K2MK]

Hi Bill,

If you Google VGA plug wiring you'll see that not all pins are connected and
some are shorted together. That's probably the reason for it not working.
You probably need a DB15 straight through male to female extension cable,
not a male/female VGA cable. You can purchase 15 pin straight through cables
from assorted suppliers. Here are links to two suppliers:

http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10215&cs_id=1021501&p_id=544&seq=1&format=2

73,
Mike K2MK
