Default Matching transformer question.

Greetings.

I have a question concerning putting in a matching transformer.

I bought a cheapie 75 Ohm to 300 Ohm Matching Transformer from RS. (part
#15-1253)

My "new" antenna is 80 foot of speaker wire with the 2 leads taped and
soldered at one end.

I was told in an earlier thred that I have to connect the end leads to the
300 Ohm side of the transformer.

My question is do I attach both leads to one screw, or one lead to each
screw.

I have already opened it up and soldered a ground lead to the "gripper"
portion of the coax side.

Thanks again for all of your help. You guys are great!
Well at least some of you. The rest I heard bad things about! ;-)
