I’m thinking this will help take my FM listening to the next level. Looking to start with a standard rabbit ears antenna in the attic, which has the flat 300ohm leads. It would be a straight run of about 25 feet into my listening area.
My question is, should I use a matching transformer to convert the 75 ohms at the antenna, and then make a 25 foot run of coaxial cable, and then reconvert back to 300 ohms at my tuner...Or just get a roll of 300 ohm cable and make a continuous run of that. There could be multipath concerns with that as I would think not being shielded.
I’ll be using a Scott 310E, which supposedly has good multipath immunity, but I’d also like to rotate with other tuners which might not. Most of the tuners will only have 300 ohm antenna connections available.
