Steve, et.al.:

I would reconsider using a stereo jack for the front panel "hole filling" 
unless you are planning to keep the receiver for your use. If you are going to 
sell the receiver after it is functioning correctly, the next owner may assume 
the jack is a standard mono jack and plug in a mono 1/4" plug. This will 
effectively short to chassis (ground) the "ring" connection of the jack. With 
the "ring" and "tip" connected together, the output of the audio amplifier will 
be shorted out!

Other than this warning, the idea of using a stereo jack is a good one 
especially in light of the number of stereo headsets available at very 
reasonable prices in the market.
