The warnings are for connecting SPEAKERS to the Rear Speaker jack. You SHOULD 
use a TRS plug to lessen the opportunity of the smoke escaping from the speaker 
stereo amplifier. 

There is no such threat to the Phones jack(s).

[Elecraft] Help with Headphones

[Tom]

Let me see if I can explain this.  I have two speakers hooked up to my K3s
using the appropriate adapter and have them working fine.   I can hear each
receiver in a different ear and the AFX function works.  I have a set of
Heil headsets that also work the same as the regular speaker.

I acquired a wireless headset that plugs directly into the mic input and
phone output.  The headsets were originally designed for telephone call
center use so they are monaural only.  I can plug them into either the
front phone jack or the rear phone jack and I hear the audio just fine.  I
have the Config:Spkrs set to 2 since I have to regular speakers and a Heil
headset that I often monitor and enjoy the AFX and the separate receive
audio.  The wireless headset audio is wired with a stereo plug but no
connection to the ring.

The plan would be to plug the wireless headset into the rear of the radio
and either the heil headset or a hand microphone into the front.

I read all the warnings about how to connect speakers and headphones.  So
is there any harm in connecting the wireless headset(remember it is
monoral) to the phone jack using a stereo plug and keeping Config:Spkrs 2?
