Re: Wiring the EP sockets

Wiring it the way you have in the drawing will work perfect for me. The only thing I'm struggling with now is the mic. It has a three section jack (tip,ring,grd) as well. I'm figuring I could either split it out to both 4 and 1, but that might do something funky. Perhaps try 4 first and if that doesn't work switch it to 5. I don't like that as much because it requires making a QSO. Which would you do in my position?

Hi

For the speaker, depends on how you plan on using it.

If the radio will not have an internal speaker, then wire up to pins 3 and 4.

If the radio will have an internal speaker, then you need to wire up the jack as in the drawing that I posted. Then when you plug in external headphones or speakers, it will shut off the internal speaker.

I realized I should have put my understanding down along with the ask for help. Attached is a drawing I found that seems to represent our EP sockets included in the kit. My understanding is that, for both mic and head phones, Pin 1 would go to ground (black wire), and the brown wire would have to be split out to connect to both pins 2 and 5, at least on the headphones (stereo), not sure about on the mic though. For reference, I will be using?

Does this sound about right?

Thinking I fully understood the wiring of the BX and then having buggered it up more than once, I ask the collective for instructions for wiring up the two EP jack sockets. I have the link from last week??but again would like some further guidance to make sure I fully understand before firing up the soldering iron as I don't think my board can take another wiring muckup.
