I don't think it's fair to call it a Wilkinson without a resistor across the output ports. A real Wilkinson provides port-to-port isolation due to the addition of the resistor. A tee and 75 ohm cables doesn't provide any appreciable isolation; it's just two transmission line transformers teed together to yield a proper match assuming that the ends of the cables are terminated into 50 ohm loads. In the real world, receivers don't have 50 ohm Z across a wide range due to front end filters and other factors, so you may end up with additional loss (above and beyond the theoretical 3 dB power-dividing loss) due to the lack of isolation between receivers. --- Jeff Yahoo!
