40dB attenuator and tap box

[@arthurziegler6021]

You can probably find a repairable HP8640B for a reasonable price. Very good sig gen. You present your information well, one of the better videos. I, too, am working on a FT-101 EE

Thanks. I looked at some HP8640B sig gens on line and they look very capable for what I do. I like the new enough to be accurate but old enough to be fun to use!

Has specific instructions re constructing a -40 db tap. As constructed it’s pretty flat out to about 650 MHz. And about constructing a power meter. It says: “measurements from nano watts to 100 watts”
