Abstract :
The development of an attenuator having a minimum attenuation of 10 decibels or less and a maximum of 25 decibels or more, together with characteristics suitable to an accessory to a precision wavemeter for field use with "S"-band Army aircraft beacon systems, is described. Both theory and operation are presented.
