   The pieces with shrink wrap are chokes to enable it to work on 70 cm.

   The short pieces of coax is the traps for the 70cm band. The antenna is a
   Slim Jim, not a J pole.

   Thanks for all the feedback guys. I was also corrected in that it is not a
   j-pole but in fact a slim jim type. Sorry about the confusion, and have
   corrected that in my title.
