The speakers Elecraft uses are very efficient. It's hard to beat them. The
issue of the upward facing speaker was a big topic back when the K2/10 was
first being shipped (ca 2000). Many people simply built a deflector that sat
right on top of the rig over the speaker opening. Curious, I made one out of
stiff paper and the results were great but I didn't need it since I use
phones all of the time. Some fellows fabricated them out of pc board
material (and then painted it) or even sheets of acrylic for a very neat
looking deflector. Bits of rubber strip on the bottom edge keeps them from
sliding off when the tilt stand is extended.

Just curious if anyone has discovered a passive external speaker more
efficient than the internal stock speaker with a deflector for CW and side
tone use? I have not.
