Or, Ten Tec could just manufacture a $3300 radio that didn't
have hisses or clicks when used with 8-ohm headphones.

Just a suggestion.

>It sounds like your headphones are 8 ohms.  I suggest either adding a 100

ohm
>resistors can added right in the headphone jack.  Just get 2 1/4 watt 100
>ohm resistors, and put each  on in series with the non-grounded side wire
>going to each headphone.
