[Antennas] Apt Ant/Fire Alarm Pblm

Mon, 11 Feb 2002 15:37:58 -0700

I did the same thing and it worked fine! The only thing that I did was to be
sure and use an antenna match box. I guess the Pi network made the
difference. Also, I made certain that I had a good earth ground, very
important!!

Hope that helps?
