[Elecraft] TIP, RING,RING, Sleeve plug

[Phil Wheeler]

Yes, it can be a bit tricky since the HP laptop I 
have is *not* wired the way the 4-conductor iPhone 
mic jack is wired, but instead is wired as shown 
here

Another approach is to use a usb sound card, like 
the Griffin iMic.

I need to find that kind of plug so I can build an adaptor but I don't even know what it is called and where to get one. I would hope it is something Radio Shack sells as that is the only place I can get parts without paying big shipping charges.
