No, this is the group with the "1/4 vs 1/2 wavelength antenna" thread I
referenced, and all the statements under it about matching RF amps and
loads across different bandwidths.

But I must point out the resonant circuits in the output of the exciter.
Usually the exciter has an output lowpass/harmonic filter.

The practice in top-of-the-line FM systems these days is to use a harmonic
filter on the exciter output only if/when it is used as a low-power
transmitter directly on the air. Otherwise that filter is redundant, and
can reduce the performance of the exciter by a small amount.
