minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish7•1 month agoMy phone doesn’t have a headphone jack but has an FM radio. It took me ages to 1) realise I needed a pass through cable without a DAC and 2) find a pass-through cable without a DAC.
minus-square@piratlinkEnglish0•1 month agoDoes it use the cable wire as the antenna, and that didn’t work through an external DAC?
