All-
I ordered a panel mount jack for my headphones and they sent a
Y-cord style jack and barrel. Non returnable.
I'd like to pose some questions to one of our more qualified
electrical people as to how to make lemonade out of lemons.
Please contact me off-list. Thanks.

Hello Ernie,
Having built three Zodiac HD (two from scratch) and currently building a HDS, I
am probably a bit
biased. I find the HD very straightforward to build, the design is altogether
less complicated than
the XL or 650, which results in a shorter building time. No electric flaps, beefy
spars and shorter
wing panels, ribs all one size, and a wide range of engines, including the affordable
Subaru.
My first HD had the Rotax 912 and climbed like an homesick angel, the second the
Subaru EA81,
which surprised me with how smooth it ran. A bit heavier, but still a climb over
1000ft/min.
Both cruised comfortably over 90 knots (all taildraggers).
Last not least, the HD has an immaculate track record for close to 20 years now,
and can take a
lot of punishment.
Cheers,
Chris

Bill,
I put the jacks in a box behind the passenger side on the rear shelf.
This enables leaving it hooked up and only having
to put on the head set and go. The diagram I used for the A200 radio,
connection with the plugs and jacks are described
in the attached drawing link. (See bottom of the drawing)

My intercom is a Sigtronics A-400 and all works very well.
The wiring diagram shows color of wires and connections for mac push to
talk Y-stick to all other connections
I hope it's perhaps useful,

Is a 100mph cruise generally what is seen in a 601HD?
