I have come up with what I think is a better mod for grounding the mike 
connector (J2) on the Front Panel board.  The two standoffs were removed on 
each side of the mike connector.  The two lockwashers on each standoff were 
removed.  Two small expansion springs (about 1/2" X 3/16" before expansion with 
the last loop on each side lying flat to accept screw) were purchased at the 
hardware store.  I placed the two springs on one screw securing them with the 
standoff, routed them on each side of J2, and joined them on the other 
standoff.  These standoffs are at ground potential.  I did not replace the two 
lockwashers on each standoff.  This mod seems to make a good ground.  
Hopefully, this along with good grounding and well sanded panel connections 
will help eliminate loss of audio due to ESD zaps to K2/100s with the KDSP2 
installed.  Roy Morris  W4WFB
