Posted: Tue Nov 06, 2012 12:02 pm Post subject: Stereo to mono headphone jacks

I bought some of the Stereo headphone plugs from B and C and tried

calling to ask a question but was unable to get an answer. I have a

Flightline FL-760 radio and this only has a mono headphone output so

should I just run a jumper wire from the sleeve post to the ring post

and ground them both, and the tip wire would be the wire fed from the

radio?



I am struggling through making a harness for the radio and this was

ONE of the looming questions.



I have another regarding grounds from other components, but I will

wait until I get home to attach a photo of the wiring schematic.



Thanks

    I'm presuming that your headphones are fitted with 1/4",

    stereo plugs. To convert to monophonic operation put

    headphone audio to both tip and ring connections. The

    tip-ring connection becomes the HI or signal connector

    to your FL-760



    The headset ground still goes to the sleeve.

    I hope you're planning on some form of common ground local

    to the radios. You can build from scratch or purchase
