Peter is talking about the tension on the two little plates that 
create contact between the tip and sleeve of the plug.  Sometimes the 
older "flawed" jacks do not create enough tension and you end up 
wiggling around your patch cord until the connection is made and you 
have signal flowing.  The "quick" fix is pressing down on the plates 
with the head of a standard screw driver.
