Hi all:
I'm looking for something that probably doesn't exist commercially
but could be made. (Solder and I have trouble seeing eye-to-eye. :-)
I want to get back into HF net controlling, something I did a lot 35
years ago but haven't done much of the past several years. I'd like
to be able to use a set of headphones and be able to listen to my
Kenwood TS-570 and my computer simultaneously as I would do the
logging on my computer. (For those who may not be aware, I am a white caner.)
In order to do this, I need a stereo Y-cable, approximately 6' long
with a quarter-inch phone plug on one end to plug into the headphone
jack on the 570, and two eighth-inch mini connectors, one male and
one female, both stereo, on the other end. The headphones will plug
into the female jack (my headphones have an eighth-inch mini plug on
them) and the male plug will plug into the sound card on my computer
(which has a mini jack). With this arrangement, I should be able to
hear the output of the radio and the computer at the same time.
I'm not concerned about level imbalance because I can adjust the
levels independently on the radio and the computer.
Thanks for any thoughts anyone may have concerning the availability
of such a cable.
Cheers & 73s,
Steve VE3KC
