Hi,
It's generally thought that the reason was so you wouldn't plug the mic into the headfone or key jack & vice versa. Damage could occur to the mic element in some cases.

I don't recall seeing this question asked but why did the Drake Co. choose
to use a smaller mic jack on the T-4 line?  Surely someone out there knows
the answer.



Please feel free to direct any comments, including flames, for asking a such
trivial question, off the reflector.  I've already have used up too much
bandwidth.
