Hi David,
I assembled the KDSP2 recently and it worked fine. However, I assume
that solder had wicked up into the J2 contacts - it was stiff to plug in
the DSP board and then impossible to pull apart. This made it awkward
to subsequently remove the front panel. So I broke up the plastic
housing of the connectors with side-cutters, carefully, so I had
thought, and pulled out the contact remnants one by one after removing
as much solder as I could with solder wick and then putting a piece of
bare, tinned bus wire heated by the soldering iron through each hole to
clean it out. After the new connectors were installed, I encountered
the trouble previously described, which is definitely self-inflicted and
not a problem concerning faulty parts being supplied to me by Elecraft.
Many thanks for your help.

Was the board installed and in service, and functional, or is this DSP
newly built, and you are troubleshooting it?
