Topband: Use of DX Engineering Receive Four Square Controller with only 2 vertical elements

I have a DXE-RFS-2P and four of the active vertical elements.  I want to
install only two of the elements, since I don't have the property to
install all four.  This would be for RX on 160m only.

 

Questions:

 

1.	Can I use the DXE-RFS-2P and just terminate the unused vertical
ports with a 75 ohm resistor?
	
	
2.	If the DXE-RFS-2P can't be used, how can I feed just two of the
active vertical elements?

 

Any suggestions on how to use just two of the vertical elements in a
"phased array" would be appreciated.
