I think I'm going to install a speaker/headphone switch on the back panel so I can just leave the headphones plugged in all the time. Then switch headphones & speaker as needed.
Apart from the mini-plug being relatively fragile, it's also annoying to plug & unplug. It doesn't go very easily and I often hit the menu button while trying to work it. I have to say, it's the only really annoying feature I've found on the K2. 73, Drew AF2Z On Fri, 01 Jun 2007 21:37:02 -0400 (EDT), Al WA6VNN wrote: >I just replaced the connector on my K2 #4887 because the internal bypass >switch that is supposed to connect the speakers when the headphones are >unplugged wasn't making contact.
