I don't think you "Have To", but I highly recommend it. We use a set of identical antenna pairs that we send out to perform NSA at Liberty Labs large OATS site in Iowa to acquire the antenna factors. When we do NSA, we open velvet lined golden caskets housing these antennas, perform the NSA tests on our chamber by exactly duplicating the test done in Iowa, then return the antennas to their nest where they slumber until the next NSA test.
When performing NSA, everything factors out except for the antennas, so we do everything possible to maintain their integrity. Since we have been using this method, doing NSA is no longer a nightmare. Zip Zip Done.
