<---Absolutely correct. BUT that is not the same thing as desense nor are the symptoms the same. You said the duplexer, taken to a different site, didn't show any desense, I'd suspect VSWR on some port, be it the antenna, rcvr or xmtr one (presenting other than the exact same load on ANY port of a duplexer between its tuning and deployment WILL detune it. That is why it's best to be sure there is a 50 ohm load on each port).
