I'm working on a much modified BC-342. Originally there were 5 flap-door plugs on the right side. This one only has 2 left. Counting down from the top #1 and #3 are still there. One is marked "Phones 2nd Audio" and one is marked "Speaker 2nd Audio". I have no idea if these 2 are even connected as originally. Is there a way to determine what the output impedance of each jack is?

To complicate matters, the LS-3 speaker for this has an 8000ohm tranny but later models of the BC-342 were switchable between 4000ohms and 250ohms for the headset. I don't know that this has that capability but I don't want to plug the wrong thing into the wrong jack. Any suggestions or guidance?

Generally, plug away without worry.

The most that happens is the level is too low.

You might test the connector for B+ before plugging in a speaker, but there wasn't any originally.
