The ground pin is the same on both which puts the +V on the negative side of C111 which I bet is totally fried and possibly the opamp as well but beyond that I don’t see additional paths to other circuitry .

Hi John
The speaker and the PA power have the same connector on the board, I think Jim switched those wires while wiring everything up
?

But the speaker connection is designed for a 2.3 mm plug. Are you sure you didn't just connect up the voltage to the power input plug, but in reverse? Or did you connect the voltage with the proper polarity but exceed the 12v limit?
If that is the case, likely many things were blown up and the whole board will have to be replaced.
If it was the speaker connection, the damage may be local, but I don't see from the schematic how that could have happened. There is no direct connection from ground to +voltage at that point. If there was smoke, there had to be a connection somewhere...just where will determine the fix, if any. The logical connection would be through the LM386 and the output capacitor.
But that is connected to the RX + line, and more components may have become involved. Check the resistance values of R110 and R112 to see if they have changed significantly. That might be a clue...
