I've researched info on the Polyphasers & there seems to be conflicting opinions on using one on coax from a J Pole antenna. What's y'all's opinion?

Just waiting on the vinyl protective end caps to finish of the build. I plan to mount up on the roof/chimney eventually. Just need to figure out best way to run the line down and into the house... and grounding.

Dip in some liquid plastic/tool handle coating goop.

Post here if you want to meet up and grab a cup of coffee beforehand at the Town Grill at 0730. I plan on taking the free Technicians Test and registration starts at 830 so that should be enough time for a quick breakfast.

I just wanted to say thanks to K31 for putting this FAQ together. I’m sure that you have many many hours invested doing the original writeup and also continuing to stay involved and offering advice through the years.
I had gotten some helpful direction from Ed Shell too and I appreciate that as well.
Time to start researching some hardware.
Looking forward to learning more and I’ll probably set my sights on taking the General exam sometime in the next year.
So I got this speaker at the hamfest. It needs a plug, but I don't know which wire goes where. How can I deduce which wire goes to the center conductor on the phono plug (or does it matter)?
