Hi Randall,
You can connect a random wire antenna directly to the T1 (then toss it
into a tree, etc.) without a feedline. But you'll need to add a ground
counterpoise wire, too; use at least one wire cut to 1/4 wavelength on
the lowest band in use.
If you want to run a balanced feedline to the antenna, then a BL1 or
BL2 would be required. The counterpoise or ground wire may then be
optional, but is still recommended.
