Nick et. al.,

There is a serious MILITARY CONFLICT starting here....the Navy shows on 
fig.2-1 of the T-23 patch field TRS on the looping jacks.  Thence, on the 
fig. 2-2 it shows a dummy plug that only has a T & S in a TRS jack.

I've posted a link to the offending figs.  They do not show the internal 
connections of the dummy plug.  So, apparently, the dummy sleeve is taking 
the the ring contact to the shell of the jack which would be ground if the 
box is mounted on the ship's wall...err bulkhead.

I'm sticking with the TRS....got lots of 'em.  And, I'm so glad I was army 
aviation...we never had the problems the Navy seems to have! ! ! ! !
