Default Re: RJ11 lead

It was the advice with "tinsel wire" used on coiled microphone cables that you should strip a gap in the insulation as described, leaving the wire ends inside to keep them all together, then over wind in the gap using fine tinned copper wire (~40SWG).
Finally tin the lot with solder. Now the spare insulation can be cut from the end.

I found it worked like a charm.
