Jukka,
Measure the values of R59 (4.7k), R60 (100 ohms), R61 (120 ohms), and
R62 (2.7k).
If this is a K2 with a serial number below 3000, R60 will be a 100 ohm
potentiometer - set it to full counterclockwise rotation or replace it
with a fixed 100 ohm resistor.
Even though 0.65 volts is slightly higher than I like to see it, that
voltage will be OK.
73,
Don W3FPR
