This is most likely due to the 2-pin plug not being fully inserted in
the socket. The case design of the GT-3 series radios has a ridge that
runs around the socket well. The plastic shell contacts this ridge
before the pins are fully inserted. A workaround for this is to trim
some plastic off of the shell to reduce/eliminate the interference.

See this page (scroll down to GT-3) for more information.
