Hi all,

just bought a set of jvc sport headphones (HA-EB70) and connected them to my scanner and there is a permanent hiss. It plays back whatever i'm scanning but even when something is transmitting there is still the hiss in the background.

Any ideas people,

Hello , it may be because the headphone jack is stereo but the 7100 socket is only mono.

Ah well,

back to the shop it goes then (the headphones, that is),

I bought a cheap pair of earphones from Argos and plugged them into my 7100, checked which earphone was working and cut the other one off. I don't get a hiss like that though.. yupiteru 7100 headphone problem 727888

Is the connection dirty?

Connection is clean, checked it with a friends scanner/headphones and he has the same problem.

Obviously not designed to work well with an external earphone. Confused
