I did speak to this sort of.
actually, I have an extension, need to replace it again as it has a short.
My headphones must match certain specifications.
With my intending to find a second pair when I can get eyes here again.
Still the unit itself has outlasted headphone extensions and headphones
without missing a beat.
They were built like a tank, and kept in production because of all the
reading abilities available.

Makes me wonder if a short 3.5mm extension cord would be worth adding
so you can leave it attached all the time, and plug into the end of the
extension instead, and hence move the wear to that location instead and
spare the poor old machine itself.
I could be wrong but from what I've gathered so far, there are no
broken wires or wear on the contacts in the jack itself. The only
problem is that the nut or threaded ring, that mounts the jack to the
chassis, has come loose. It just needs to be screwed back on and
tightened. It has been suggested that Loctite or some other similar
substance be added to the thread, to prevent this problem from
happening in the future.
I don't think Karen has said whether the plug is frequently inserted
and removed from the jack or not.
