    Kinda unrelated but a noob question. Shouldn't the coax center attach to the longer piece and the coax shield to the shorter piece?

    Here a little over a year later, do you still recommend / use the CAA-500 MKII analyzer? If not do you have any suggestions for the budget conscience?

    I may have seen a worse video on UA-cam ... but I can't remember when. If you're going to make a video -- don't start out by referring to some other video that your viewers probably haven't seen. Don't use jargon.
