Within GRUB sources (I downloaded it with git) you have a util/spkmodem-recv.c file, and, as indicated in the comments in it, you just need to compile it with “gcc -o spkmodem-recv spkmodem-recv.c”, connect one end of the jack to the audio input (microphone) of your computer (the one that is on and from which you will listen) and the other on the audio output (headspeakers) of the computer that you will boot with spkmodem module, then you run “parecord --channels=1 --rate=48000 --format=s16le | ./spkmodem-recv” (personally parecord didn’t work so I used parec instead) and that will write on standard output all the things about libreboot booting.
