blacks and reds, oh my.
First, sorry, searching here on "antenna" yields a bizillion results but I haven't yet cleared up my foggy understanding of antenna technology.
- Is there a primer anywhere here on the basics of antennas?
- Does any of the Philco lit tell the user how to connect Antenna, Ground, and Red & Black? And what are those even for? (I haven't found any info here yet).
- I see lots of "advice" in various places, with little explanation. Like ground the radio but don't use house ground. Huh? Why not?
- Speaking of grounds... is it advisable to install a new grounded power cord, connecting the ground to chassis?
- Speaking of new cords, if a new polarized plug is used, does it matter where the neutral and hot wires go?
