Don, You hit it on the head, as usual. When I plug the speaker connector into the RIGHT connector, it works. Thought I read the directions and never imagined two 2-pin P5 connector in a small area. So I plugged in to the Control board!
First try to use an external speaker did not work, and I guess that may be related to the speaker jack wiring. I will check out the errata for that, but it can wait till I am installing the KPA-100 I just started. Thanks all for the help. K2 #5848 is now on the air, and working like a charm so far. 73, Tom KG3V Quoting Don Wilhelm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Tom, > > If you are plugging the speaker into P5 on the CONTROL BOARD, it will NOT > work there. > Plug it into P5 on the RF Board and see what happens.
