Steve,

Roughly 400 ohms on short wave, probably higher on broadcast and long 
wave.  This is true of most home-entertainment sets.  It's a reasonable 
compromise to accommodate a 50-footish wire antenna across all 
frequencies.  The RMA Dummy Antenna specified for alignment give us some 
clues: http://www.ai4fr.com/main/page_electronic_repair_rma_schematic.html
