What is a "audio jack outlet" called?

I have a wavemeter & a microwave attenuator with GR-874 fittings. There may be a few other things left, too.

How about 'HN' connectors? :)

Not familiar with those -- at least by that name.

O.K. I think that I've seen them -- but never used them, based on a Google search.

Enjoy, DoN.

The only place I've ever seen them used was in an early '50s UHF TV transmitter. I ran across some surplus and pickeD them up. They are similar to 'N' connectors, but have a higher power rating.

You are so darn picky. Do you expect Usenet posters to think or something? 8*)

Glad we could be of help. Now that you've got what you need, we can divert this thread to politics. ;-)

Except it's NOT 1/8", it's 3.5mm.

You'd better tell manufacturers of the XLR type connector that. The term 'female cable socket' is quite normal.

Don't you always ?

An inline interconnection (XLR or otherwise) reverts back to the predominant sex of conductor pins and sockets contained in each bob. The 'bob' with the highest male pin count is the plug, and the predominantly "holey" or "female socket populated" "bob" (connector shell) is the lady of the pair or the JACK, or your precious "socket". I'd almost bet that the use of the term "socket" to refer to any cable or interconnect element is a European etymology thing. Over here, what we call a socket, one screws a light bulb into. You missin' yours?

That inline configuration is "flying lead" style stuff. There are a few added monikers over a panel mounted termination point. Most interconnects connect between hard panel JACKs and mobile, end-of-cable PLUGS, and they get those monikers REGARDLESS of what pins predominantly populate EITHER interconnect half.

Only in turd world countries where they make substandard 1/8" crap and claim they invented it.

Why not? You're always trolling, you America hating UK troll.
