[1000mp] ext spkr jack and 1000mp original

[Art Searle W2NRA]

Hi Ted,

I think more likely is oxidation of the inside of the socket and/or not
enough tension on the socket part that makes contact with the plug.  Use a
product like Deoxit on the inside and/or try bending the internal socket
parts to make better contact.  Also use Deoxit on the speaker plug.

Hello Milt and all....I am referring to the external speaker jack on the
rear of the MP...anyone else had this jack go "funny" on them???
I guess I will have to open up the radio and check the soldering of that
jack. Thanks to all who replied.

Ted,

Is the plug inserted into the 1/8" minature jack on the front panel?  If so,

I have figured out a method to make the repair.  Please advise.

Hello one and all...

Just wondered if anyone has experienced intermittent connections when 
plugging in an external speaker to the 1000mp???

I thought my soldering skills had decayed badly because I had soldered a new

plug onto the external speaker leads, but when I plug it into the radio the 
audio is non existent until I wiggle the plug. This happened a few times 
until I realized that maybe I have a cold solder joint or a broken 
connection on the jack itself. Anybody experience this? and is it easy to 
repair??

Let me know.  Thanks.  Ted VE3SS
