[TenTec] 565 Low level audio on headphones

[Barry N1EU]

The easiest fix is to switch to higher efficiency headphones.

I didn't want to switch.  There are series resistors right at the headphone
jack.  You have to remove the front panel.  Lower the value of those
resistors.  Do this at your own peril etc.  It worked for me - I think I
might have cut the value in half or something along those lines.
