Hi,

My problem is that I cannot for the life of me find a 3.5mm stereo jack socket that is switched, but when you plug something into it, it creates a connection rather than breaks one. I need one to replace another one you see. Is there any way I can create this kind of switch only using passive circuitry.

Thanks.

(alternatively if someone knows where I can get hold of one in the UK that would also be a great help!)
 
They aren't something you can usually find for sale, the usual answer is to bend the contacts so they make instead of break.
