Hi again Jim

I'd suspect you need an attenuator of maybe 60dB in 6dB steps! I cant
see the 10dB variable one as being useful. Of course at 50dB or more
coax leakage might be an issue!


When you see the numbers for the Offset attenuator you won't believe them,
though true.



Okay on the screening. Well as I mentioned the test is to plug a 50 ohm
load in the antenna socket and see if it responds at a distance of say
5ft. If it doesnt then dont worry about screening. If it does it depends
on how much and then whether things like coax leakage have to be
factored in.

Good test.
