Paul-
Did you mean to say is does (or does not) need matching? I will be
installing mine soon, so I need to get it straight in my own mind. I
thought the antennas were ground planes, which should be close to 52
ohms. I had thought the only issue was to use high quality cable
because the frequency is so high.

Mike,
A transponder antenna is impedance matched to the transponder and does
require a matching device. The most important thing is to use high
quality
low loss cable and keep it short as possible.
