Ward:
It's definitely worthy your attempting further diagnostics and
attempts to fix. The more you get into it, the further you will find
yourself able to go. And it's always nice to know, in the back of your
mind, that Elecraft is there behind the scenes if necessary. There are
good odds you'll be able to do the job yourself, perhaps with an e-mail
or a phone call to Gary, and it will be a nice feeling for sure.
best wishes, and the best of luck,

Well, I finished the SSB adapter for my K2/100 tonight and slapped in.
All worked until I switched in the SSB filter then signals dropped to
almost nothing.
OK, problem in the filter, so I got out some wire and a cap and was
jumping the end of the SSB filter chain with the middle (and it did
seem there was a problem in the second half..)
Then without thinking I jumpered the first third of the chain at CD to
the xtal output jack at P3/J10 neatly bypassing the step-down of T2
and slamming some nice voltage onto the main board and, I assume, into
the IF amp.
Signals were very loud for a moment though!
Now all the audio is gone in all modes -- CW, SSB..ack!
Is it worth banging around trying to chase this, or shall I just
embrace my shame and send the whole mess off to Elecraft?
