Yes and the length of the 1/4" phone plug plus the length of the adapter to an RCA connector is something of serious length sticking out behind the radio.  Sure is a grand opportunity to get the radio RCA connector damaged.  Estimated total length of the albatross is about 3".    Not on my radio!

Gee folks, we can build our own transmitters and amplifiers and experiment with them on the air.

Why is it so hard to get an RCA plug, cut off the 1/4 inch phone plug and solder on an RCA plug?
Much easier than searching for an adapter.

Hi guys! I searched around a bit nothing conclusive so thought I’d ask.

I am needing a foot switch for my K3s which is also connected to my KPA500/KAT500 setup.

I purchased a Heil FS-3 however it has a 1/4” phono plug on it and the K3s has an RCA jack (like a dummy I did not look at the back of the radio before I bought it).

So, recommend an adapter or I can take this one back to HRO and get something else?

Recommendations?

Thanks,
