Hi
I am close to being done my first build, almost there except for 1 question (hopefully)

I have a Simple question Regarding Part 10 Step 1,Passive RIAA. The instructions state...

Quote " Slip a 1-14" piece of teflon tubing over one lead of a Megohm resistor (1004F)."

The current kti does not come with Teflton, was this the old way of doing it in a past kit? Did they forget to add a revision on the revision page I was sent (with other instruction revisions).

I have teflon tape I used to make DIY cables a while ago, woudl that work?

Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance for the replys.

you don't really need the teflon, so we no longer include it.

You can use a piece of wire jacket from the supplied teflon coated wire.
