This happened to me not on a K3 but in a headphone conector on a mixing board. but the same connectors. when the tip came off the connector the tip was attached to a pin that extended trough the ring a sleve. so what was left inside the mixer was not so deep down the hole. with a flashlight and very fine long needle nose pliers I was able to grab it and pull it out. no damage done.

Hello,
a friend of mine, also a Ham, bought his new K3 some weeks ago. He is still 
leaning all the functions, but has a Problem.

He lost the tip of then 1/4" connector of his More-key in the K3 rear connector, 
After removing of the 1/4" (6.3mm) plug  from his K3 he noticed that the tip is 
missing and still in the Connector in the K3.

Has anyone a good idea, how to remove this without destroying the connector?
