Default Spektrum Telemetry Question

Hi

Is anyone using the Spektrum telemetry, I just picked one up cheap and though I would give it a shot. When I went to install the system I took a look at the directions and they tell you remove you battery/switch lead from the bat/tel port on the reciever and plug the provided harness into that port, then connect the other end to the telemetry module. So my question is, what the heck do I do with the battery/switch power lead? There doesnt seem to be a connection for the batter/switch lead to plug into the telemtry module. Do I need to buy a "Y" connector, if so then why doesnt Spektrum provide or mention this? [&:]

Well I got the problem figured out, thanks for all the replies [>:] , so if anyone else gets the telemetry and needs a fix for this problem here are the solutions from Spektrum:

1. If your AUX port on the reciever is not being used, you can plug the switch/battery lead into that. I know it doesnt sound quite right, but it is and it does work I tested it.
2. If the all of the ports are used on your reciever you can buy a "Y" harness from LHS and plug it in either batt/tel port or Aux port.
