[GreenKeys] Jack Selection for TTY equipment

[hwhall at compuserve.com]

         FWIW, my local surplus store (OEM Parts) has a tray full of long frame jacks that take 1/4 inch plugs. They were in my way constantly when I was looking for the smaller 0.206 inch version for Jeff (WA6FWI). And they are a LOT less than $11 apiece. They also have a lot of the 303A plugs, NOS in original plastic or some mounted on cables.

  Pricey, but they'll outlive us all.

  The Switchcraft 3 conductor (TRS) bushing mounted (as in 
  patch panels and telco stuff) with two N.C. leafs for the 
  tip and ring respectively. This allows for shorting when a 
  plug is removed. 
   
  And yes, 1/4" plugs fit just fine. Both W.E. Mil and Radio 
  Shack.
