Redesign the Zahori with low noise figure demands also film resistor resistance 1%.
The main difference I can see between the CA3130 and the CA3140 is the input current and the equivalent input noise voltage.
CA3130 has Ii = 5pA @ 15V and 2pA @ 5V, and en = 23uV.
CA3140 has Ii = 10pA, and en = 48uV.
Not sure whether this would make a significant difference in this application. When you're talking about pA, there are plenty of other sources of interference to swamp these minute values of current.
