Default Old Microphone Connector

A co-worker here at the Radio Pier brought in an odd mic connector and
asked me if I knew
the formal name for it. I answered it was a "mic connector on 50-year
old Ham Radios".
Specifically, it was the type that had a dot of solder in the middle,
and a screw-on ring.
This one was made by Switchcraft. Our chief called it an "Amphenol
Mini". I didn't find one in the Switchcraft catalog, but maybe didn't
look hard enough. Was there a more specific
title for this connector? TNX es 73 de KE9EX

I always knew them as "Amphenol connectors".
