Struthian Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 If I want to run my tetra without the antennas, to work with software or other things, is this the safe and effective way to do it? A 50 ohm terminated SMA Male. I am noting this one is only rated to 3ghz but I'm not sure that actually matters. http://www.rfsupplier.com/coaxial-termination-loads-male-connector-p-1562.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capella Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 You're definitely on the right track - if the Tetra transmits during configuration, testing, familiarization, etc for any reason it could alert whoever you're targeting that you're within 1,000 meters or so of them. Tetra covers the 2.4 GHz and 5.7 GHz wifi bands so I use https://www.fairviewmicrowave.com/rf-load-1-watts-6-ghz-sma-male-st0645-p.aspx "dummy loads" on my Tetra. The Fairview "dummy loads" are rated at 1 watt (Tetra transmits at 800 mw (aka 0.8 watts)) and up to 6 GHz so the 2.4 GHz and 5.7 GHz wifi bands are both covered.
