In my Sx-42 alignment instructions call for the use of an "RMA" dummy
antenna.  It is an LC circuit consisting of a 200pF cap in series with
a 20uH inductor.  The inductor is "shunted with a 400 pF cap in series
with a 400 ohm resistor.  Two questions:

Shunted:  does this mean in parallel with?
what does this thing do?

thanks

Rich
