If that doesn't work, then, and only then, it becomes a technical
problem.

That's good advice, except I have three different audio inputs that all
land where I now have the transmitter.
Besides, we like technical problems! :-)

After my last response to Jeff when I measured the output voltage, I
just realized I can check the loss through the LPF. Hot dog! Can't
wait to get home.

Don't fool yourself. A 10x probe has maybe 10pF capacitance. What is
that reactance at 100MHz? About maybe 160 ohms? How will that affect
your measurement?


I don't know.


If you can't calculate or reason out the answer, then you need a teacher
better than I.
