Will seek out a handyman then. As explained, this is the equal to my computer monitor, with the machine very difficult to replace. Since the headphone jack gets allot of activity, and extends out of the hod of the machine, after several years of my moving the headphones several times a day, I am not surprised. happened once before in 2015 or 16. My personal engineer just tightened it, no chemical smell recalled, which is why I thought a small wrench could tighten the nut itself. It sits beside a comparative jack which, if one uses an audio patch chord allows one to record the information onto external audio media like a cassette tape.
Makes me wonder if a short 3.5mm extension cord would be worth adding so you can leave it attached all the time, and plug into the end of the extension instead, and hence move the wear to that location instead and spare the poor old machine itself. -- Len Sorensen
