Re: Deliberant DLB1300a maybe dumb question
No PCMCIA card, so I guess that means it needs a load?

| You should be ok without one. 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

| said by nwn  :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.
