To clarify things, that filter was never suppost to be 
sold by anyone. I have a non-profit, for personal 
use only policy on all of my work because that's
what I promised to do. No one is allowed to use 
anything from my site for a commercial product.

After taking it out I thnk that it's best not to break
my policy or my promise. The great man has only
been gone for moments.... 

That said, please replaced the EFM Moog filter with 
something else if you are going to be selling a new
Monowave kit.

This has no effect on DIYing one for yourself. If you're 
making your own version for your personal use then 
you are free to use the EFM Moog filter.

Thanks again Paul it's a terrific project that many
DIYers will have a great time building.

Regards
Tom
