Anyone with the answer about the "TEE" connector?
When making the stub because the "TEE" will introduce some added length,
so to cut the cable right on. I'd have to have the "TEE when making the
cable with the MFJ unit.
but what should I do with the other end of the "TEE" leave it open? put
a 50 dummy across it? etc?

The only bands we seem to have problem on are 40 & 20 with the two
stations hearing each other.
So plan on making up a pair of stubs, for each station.
Now from wat i have found seems pretty simple. and will this actually
be correct?
It looks like the 1/4 wave (electrical) on 40 un shorted will block 0
an pass 20 yes?
and the exact same stub shorted will pass 40 and block 20 yes?
so adding at the far end a small SPST toggle switch should make a easy
switch 20 or 40 stub yes?
Now I plan on using them in the usual manner right at the rigs with a
"T" connector.
To make them we plan on using a MFJ 259B
The way they say to make a stub using it is pretty plain and straight
forward and easy, "BUT"........
I'm assuming I should include the "T" when making the stub to have it
include the extra length it is making.
Now what do I do with the open end of the "T"?
does it need to me terminated? like with a 50 ohm dummy load? o9r left
open is ok, or what?
Anyone?
