Elecraft KX3 Application Note – Installing the Speaker Grille Cloth

Page 6 of 9

Stand the KX3 on one side with the speaker opening facing up as shown in Figure 9. Lift the speaker with the grill on

top and carefully maneuver them into place so the screw holes in the grille and speaker frame line up with the holes in the
top cover and with the speaker oriented so the speaker cable is as shown. Secure the speaker with the four screws supplied
with your modification kit. They are slightly longer than the originals to ensure they thread into the plastic speaker frame
properly. Do not tighten the screws beyond the point at which the heads reach the metal to avoid stripping the
threads
.
