To reduced wear on the headphone jacks, I leave my headphones plugged in all the time, both the front and rear panel jacks. I turn the speakers on and off with a macro:
MN097;UP;MN255; I have the macro available in three (!) places: DXLab's Commander K-Pod Win4K3Suite For that matter, I don't use the front panel controls very much, instead using the K-Pod, logging programs, or Win4K3Suite. 73, Jim N7US -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net <elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net> On Behalf Of N4ZR Sent: Tuesday, May 11, 2021 13:39 To: Elecraft List <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Subject: [Elecraft] K3: Replacing Headphone Jack I'm about to replace the headphone jack on my K3 - the first two times it failed I had Elecraft do it while it was back there other work, but this time, it's otherwise FB, and I have the part, so... I can probably reverse-engineer the removal of the front panel from the original construction manual, but thought I'd ask first whether there might, perhaps, be an easier way when working on a completed and working rig. -- 73, Pete N4ZR Check out the new Reverse Beacon Network web server at <http://beta.reversebeacon.net>.
