[Elecraft] [K3] Why do they still use 1/4 inch phone jacks?

Hi,

100% agreement with you here. The other real question ought to be: Why do
reputable manufacturers like Heil put the crummy connectors on their
products? I have a late model Proset now connected to the rear of the K3 and
the connectors both have a wobbly and awful feel to them. I do not currently
have any connection problem, but frankly I don't dare touch them. My cables
from Radio Shack connecting my LP-Pan to the sound "card" I have to reset
every so often when suddenly spurs occur in the middle of the display and/or
the image rejection drops to 0.
