DEMI recommends 50-ohm terms on unused outputs of its 4-way 10-MHz 
distribution amp.  It uses MAR6 mmic's that output 10mw.

I wouldn't say they were self-terminating, but more that they don't care.? If
you have a multi-port passive splitter then I would terminate unused ports to
ensure proper splitting.? Maybe your GPS distribution amp too as it may be an
amp driving a passive splitter inside.
