My posting this morning about blowing the speaker amp chip was in error. Further investigation reveals that I actually blew out the K3's internal speaker. Ohmmeter measurement at the speaker terminals shows that the coil is wide open. This is really good news, because the speaker is easily replaceable in the field.

It's also good news because it points out the efficacy of the E85056 protection mod.

My apologies for making a wrong assumption. The symptoms were exactly the same as the two previous failures of the speaker amp.
