[Elecraft] K3 - No speaker output

[Dave Hachadorian]

Bob,

It's not on the web site.  I heard about it indirectly, sent them
an email, got the part number and price, then called up and
ordered two, one for each of my K3's.  I haven't installed them
yet.

Hi Dave,

               I just spent about 20 minutes searching for
information on this
mod.  I can not find it on the Elecraft site. Do you have a
linkable source or
any PDF , or other format, type documents.

               I would certainly order it for that price and have
it on hand for
the next time the K3 gets opened.   But would like to know more
before I ordered
it.  I've never had an audio issue but, "An ounce of protection
is worth a pound
of cure.".
