K5DNL
Hello all,
I have completed the output mod with the 470 ohm
resistors.
Now is it ok to use a ext speaker with mono connector ??

If you set CONFIG:SPKRS to 1, you can use a mono plug.

If you have it set to 2, and accidentally plug in a mono plug, the
resistors should prevent damage to the AF amp. But we recommend using a
stereo plug in all cases, just to be safe (see page 20 of the owner's
manual).
