Re: Don't need to skinkin' wire!

Thanks for the info Paul! Since I'm (STILL!!!) using those bananas, the coax 
isn't a concern. Though I've thought about getting a spool of it because it 
looks as though it would also make a good cable for inside electric guitars 
-- 1001 uses. Send the 420 out as soon as you can! 

BTW, as I've said many times in the past, the pre-stripped/tinned wire is 
like icing on the cake for such great kits -- most certainly the easiest kits 
I've built! But occasionally I'll eat cake without icing; like, when I'm 
hungry for filters!

As for the Bourns pots, I'd definitely like to see you use these for the 
flying wire pots in the future kits -- I hate dealing with those PCB leads! 
Hate it!

I didn't mean to start a "no wire revolution" though.
