One of the things I plan on doing is getting a simple 4 output headphone amp from ART ($65). Plug one or 2 pairs of headphones in, and output another to my computer, and another to a real amplifier/speaker setup.
That way I never have to unplug the set to have an output to my computer for Data or voice. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of drewko Sent: Monday, April 26, 2010 8:42 AM To: Ed Finn Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] k2 headphone jack That jack gets a lot of wear for those of us who constantly switch between headphones and speaker. I don't know if there's a better one available but when I replaced mine I also wired a speaker/headphone switch into the circuit. I mounted the switch on the back panel in the unused XVTR OUT port rather than drill a new hole. So now I can leave the headphones plugged in all the time and just use the switch to go between speaker and headphones. It is also a lot more convenient than plugging and unplugging all the time-- just reach back and toggle the switch. 73, Drew AF2Z On Sun, 25 Apr 2010 21:40:04 -0400, Ed wa3drc wrote: >All, > > > >Is there a high quality replacement for this jack?
