I am at Step 20 and I was wondering if I could some further clarification.

The build docs say to connect the white wire to the output socket pin 6, but the illustration shows a white wire coming out of where I have a yellow wire. The build docs also show a yellow wire, so I am a little confused.

Yeah, that's a mistake. Yellow is the correct wire color. I really thought that had been corrected in the TR instructions long ago.

A little advice - the rotary switch has a lot going on in this build. Make sure to go slow with that step and make your connections as neatly as possible with very little to no exposed lead sticking out. There is high voltage and current being switched on that - exposed leads getting too close together could cause arcing.

One last question, I just want to double check that I wired the AC power jack correctly.

Yes, that looks correct to me...assuming you plan on using it with 120VAC.
