K2 is Deaf following SSB module install

Steve Watkins
(Corrected original message to state "capacitor vs resistor 167")


K2 was working wonderfully on CW, and decided to finally install the SSB module I'd completed months ago.

Picked up on the steps where I left off by removing two jumpers, W2 and W3, and capacitor 167 (Page 13 of the KSB2 book).  The board plugged in snuggly, and the K2 powered up with the Elecraft name on the display.

However, the speaker is now absolutely deaf.  With head phones I can hear some CW, but nothing from the speaker, and it certainly doesn't sound as good as before I removed the jumpers and capacitor and installed the SSB module.

I get the SSBA and SSBC in the menu display OK.  The next step (Third step on page 15 of the KSB2 SSB Adapter assembly and operating instruction book) states to "Tap MODE" to select CW mode.  I presume this means AFTER you have exited the "MENU" function.

Anyone encounter this problem or have an idea of where to go next?

Thanks, Steve
