[Elecraft] SO239 and T4 Proximity

Has anyone else noticed that the center pin of the SO239 if left
unclipped, goes partially into the hole of T4?   I thought I had mounted
the SO239 wrong, but no, I did it right for once. I'm simply going to
clip about 1/16 of an inch off the SO239 center pin unless for some
reason this is not acceptable.  T4 won't bend over, either!  Maybe it
knows something ;-)  It probably wouldn't hurt anything to leave it
alone, but if for some reason the center conductor should cause some
abrasion to the windings of T4 and screw up something, big time, it would
be easier to head it off at the pass now.
