Antenna 2

Paul Ormandy
Thanks for the replies. Hadn't thought of its use for sub rx or dummy load.
I have grounded out the connector with a plug hooked directly to the
receiver grounding terminal.

Well if you accidentally transmit into it an open might be better than a
short. Did you at least disable it using the utility program?

Either put a small 50 ohm load or leave it open.  A short to ground may cause a PA device failure.
