Hi everybody :lol: , I just got all of the parts to make my TDA7000 receiver in the mail yesterday, so now im going to build it, and will probably be needing some help every once in a while (like right now).
There is going to be a jack to put earphones in. The jack is the kind that you would normally use to plug speakers into the back of your computer, or the kind of jack on a regular portable cd player, I think that it is 1/8 in. Neway, I think that I’m missing something. I took the plug that leads into my speakers from my computer, and was touching it. When I touch the top, the right speaker hums, when I touch the middle, the left speaker hums, when I touch the bottom, nothing happens (i think that must be the common or something). When I put the plug into the jack that I got, I tried touching the prongs . . . The thing is, I can only get one speaker to hum, so it would seem that when I make my circuit, only one side of my earphones is going to make sound. Am I connecting it the wrong way or something?
Here is a picture of the jack. I think that it is 1/8 in., but I’m not sure.
