Hi Murf,
>What would be the best hookup for this system.
The short answer is which ever hookup plays the loudest.
The long answer is that a proper doublet ant will work much better than a single wire. Signals will be stronger and background noise will be less. It needs to be cut to the proper length (for the bcb abt 300' total) and connected w/300 or 450 ohm feed line. The old skool flat tv ant wire works well as it's 300 ohm, can be used for the feed line.
>Does not have the optional wave trap antenna that was available from Sears for a buck.
Don't need it unless you need to minimize interference from a strong nearby station.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
