I opted for the dripworks starter kit ($32.00).

I saw the HF kit and at $6.49 I took a pass. Didn't inclusde a filter to
keep the emitters from getting plugged. Neoprene tubing is not the most
durable. Here's link to it:

Although $6 is hard to pass up .

The only fitting in the kit that matches the threads of a standard hose
bib
appears to be some sort of anti-syphon valve. Screw things together,
apply
pressure and the adapter (?) leaks like crazy.

What am I doing wrong?

HF is no help... 'Send it back.' Good advice but it's here and the
emitters
work and tubing is tubing and the plants don't care, so long as they get
a
drink now & then.

Any help would be warmly appreciated.

I don't recall seeing a drip irrigation kit at Harbor Freight, but most of
their stuff is so cheap that you might be better off getting a complete
new
kit just for the adaptor. Of course a person of low morals might get a
new
kit, swap out the defective part, and return the thing to the store,
noting
that the part was defective. Mind you, I don't think you should even
consider doing this.
