Re: [VHFcontesting] FN55 - Transverter drive control?

This is a good suggestion. I've used RG-174 to build attenuators for a long 
time (I found a reel of it at a local surplus store). RG-174 is small and easy 
to work with. It will handle a hundred watts past 1,000 MHz. Check out the 
specs here:

 I've never done this myself but I've
