Hi All,
I am looking for some suggestions on troubleshooting an SSB audio problem with 
my K2 (Ser # 495). With about an hour to go before the end of the W1AW/1 CT 
operation, I was on 20 m SSB and received a report of very distorted audio. At 
first I blamed it on the fact that the calling station was well off my transmit 
frequency. When a second caller also mentioned bad audio. I asked him to tell 
me more. He thought it sounded like a bad mic or something, so I swapped out my 
Heil Gold Line mic for my Heil headset. No difference. Then I went to the 
Kenwood hand mic that I use for casual operating. Again, no difference. Since 
he also seemed to be a bit off my frequency, I tried tuning him in with RIT. I 
realized I could not tune him in for clear received audio, either. So clearly 
my K2 has developed a problem.
I imagine it is something in the KSB2 SSB adapter. Any suggestions as to what 
might go suddenly wrong with the adapter? Or other suggestions as to the source 
of the problem?
I need help fast! I have a Kenwood TS-690S on the desk now, and it is a 
horrible CW rig, since it has no CW filters included! I want my K2 back! Thanks 
for any suggestions.

73,

Larry Wolfgang, WR1B
