Deliberant DLB1300a maybe dumb question in Wireless Service Providers http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r13363841 en Tue, 24 Nov 2009 12:55:43 EDT Tue, 24 Nov 2009 12:55:43 EDT Re: Deliberant DLB1300a maybe dumb question http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13371929 Diddy1 : Ya, from my old experimental RF days, the cable is not enough cause it is must be terminated. I mean the pigtail/cable provides resistance only if it is terminated so I don't think the pigtail is enough without some terminating device, like an antenna, is connected. I'd hate to fry my first Deliberant!

said by nwn See Profile:

I have setup several 1300s using just the pigtail. No problems so far.
The transmitter needs to be terminated into a load of the proper impedance. An "open" (unterminated) pig-tail has an infinite impedance, not the 50 ohms that is required.

The "rubber duck solution" is appropriate for setup.

I am sure that this is what you meant...I just thought that it needed to be clarified so that people would not use just a pigtail with no antennas.

We suggest they have it hooked up to *something* when they fire it up, so a small pigtail/rubberducky or a longer pigtail (like the one that comes with it) should suffice.

Tim, no pcmcia card in this one. It's all onboard now :)

I ordered without integrated antenna. So, if I power this unit up, will I burn out the radio without an antenna installed? I remember from the Ham/CB radio days, you don't power up unless you have an antenna or load connected to prevent burnout of RF amps. So, can I power this up without a load???
