Ear/mic sockets...

I have 2 128K toasters.

The ear/mic sockets are different sizes. 1 is slightly too small to take the lead I made up for audio into the scart, or for the lead I made up for the amp. Is the smaller one normal or were there different versions?

Both take the proper ear/mic lead. Just not the modern mono jack.

    I have experienced (in pro audio equipment), that there are slight differencies between american and european plugs.

    I won't bet my belongings that this is the occation here, but..........

    Also remember that there are 2,5 mm and 3,5 mm jacks.

    Don't think it's quite that far out otherwise the old jacks wouldn't work. I'll take it round the components shop and try a few different jacks.

    Because of the age, you'll most likely find the old sockets to be 1/8th inch rather than the now standard 3.5mm size.

    Bowood electronics is the place to go, their plugs fit the Spectrum sockets just fine.
    Oh bugger!<br>
