Non-inductive terminating resistors were used (years ago)at the triple
curtain rhombis antennas used by the Voice of America receiver site at
Furstenfeldbruck, Germany. They used triple space diversity curtained
rhombices.
Terminating a rhombic adds some directivity in the terminated end direction.
Rhomibic are examples of "non-resonant" antennas.
Although Ten-Tec equipment was not used, RCA triple diversity receivers were
as well as Racal receivers.
