I checked the archives and found that there have been problems in the past and that apparently it comes back to some bad contacts in the headphone jack. So, should I just get Elecraft to send me another headphone jack or should I check something else??
Reply: -------------------- If you get the speaker wires backwards this will happen too. One side of the speaker wiring is grounded and reversing them grounds out the audio to the speaker. There have been issues with K2 headphone connectors, but I have no idea how widespread it is. My K2 is 5 years old and the original headphone jack is FB and I'm constantly plugging and unplugging phones in that jack. One thing I *never* do with these little jacks is to plug in a large adapter for a 1/4 inch phone plug, etc., so the jack has to support it's weight. I don't know if any others have done that, but I try to be gentle with the miniature jacks.
