I have a question about the Atomics swivel hose ( I have one on a B1; like it, but changing to a long hose ).

I want to swap out the swivel hose for a long hose. The current assembly, with the swivel hose is: regulator -> o-ring -> swivel hose.

When I swap to a standard long hose, is the following sequence correct?
regulator -> jamb nut -> hose ( no added o-ring on the regualtor post, other than the one already installed inside the new hose )

So, the question really is, is the o-ring only used with the swivel hose, and not used when switching to a "standard" hose?
