Re: Muting speaker - dummy load?

Hi mikelock98 & all,

New to the group. Looking to find a good used BC780XLT to replace my BC898T.

I modified my 898T by adding a line-out jack to the back to patch into my PC's sound card. This unit has an ext speaker/headphone jack on the front. When I need to mute the internal speaker, I insert a right-angle headphone jack adapter into the front headphone jack. This naturally cuts-out the external speaker. 

These right-angle headphone adapters can be found at an electronics store like Radio Shack or Fry's for under $5.
