[Hallicrafters] RTMA Dummy Antenna needed for alignment?

[Jim Wilhite]

Me too Dennis.  If you want, put a 50 ohm load parallel with the signal 
generator and tweak the antenna coils with that attached.  That 
maximizes the incoming signal into a 50 ohm resistive load, what most of 
us use anyway.  If your system is other then use that value resistor.
