Has anyone done the tap and been successful yet? I've seen pics of where the tap is on the circut board, but haven't heard of anyone actually doing it. I'm hoping it's the same steps/parts as the 780/796 mods.

Rich I would encourage you to upload your pic to the Wiki, and add links to the Discriminator Output and 996 Wiki pages; given how popular this scanner is, it's a question that is sure to come up again.
Non-polarized. I have read someplace that polarized caps cause more problems than the solve.
To tell the truth, I have not always used caps in all my radios and have never noticed any difference. I think it is mostly a safety valve to avoid damage in case of a short when you are connecting or disconnecting cables to the discriminator tap.
