What is inside: Variable RF attenuator

Opening this up to see what is inside....

That's one well-made attenuator. Thanks for opening it up for us to see.

The company still exist and makes all types of similar rf products. Very beautiful and top quality.👍

Cool! The heavy-duty milled body with dozens of screws is meant to prevent RF from leaking, the attenuator works up to the UHF range. The attenuator came from a 1980s radio telephone test set and its attenuation range goes down to -130dB.

Hi, thanks for the presentation.
Let me know the characteristic impedance (50 ohm ?) and the power handling capacity (1 watt max ?)

It is 50 ohms... not sure about the power since this is rather old product but most likely 2 watts
