Just want to add another email to the lot....

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all the people on the list....and to the
Elecraft owners and workers of the world.

 In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't
have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any
Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common
Sense divine?

Common Sense is the image of the Creator expressing revealed truth in my mind.

I just got my K2 back from Don  and Allen... Thank you...Both.

But I might have a problem.
When I hooked up the rig and listened to 40m and 20m both on SSB the sound coming from the speaker was raspy and distorted. Also it sounded very thin. So I plugged in my AKG 701 headphones...Yes, that was better.
But I of course wanted to get to the bottom of the problem...so I unscrewed the left side next to the speaker.
Aha! that little flat battery had slipped out of it's holder and was resting on the speaker magnet shield.
(No doubt it popped loose in shipping)

So my question...What does that battery do?
Would it have anything to do with the raspy audio?
Can I just put it back in and be good to go?

Or am I simply screwed.

K2# 01264
Now upgraded with 100 watt amp etc etc.

Thank You all for help.

  Phil,

Yes, just put the battery back in the holder.  The only thing it does is
run the real time clock.  You will, of course, have to set the clock
after the battery is back in.

Yes, a battery resting against the speaker cone would make it sound
quite "raspy".

73 and the best Holiday Greetings to you,
Don W3FPR
