[Elecraft] Wiring Headphones for K3

[Don Wilhelm]

Dave,

I am not certain if you received a response or not - I did not see one 
on the reflector.
Convention has the left channel on the tip and right on the ring - the 
sleeve is ground.
You can always wire in a DPDT switch to swap if you want to do that - As 
I recall, one of the Heil headsets has a reversing switch.

73,
Don W3FPR.
