Attenuators

To get to 10mW I shall probably run my FT817ND at 500mW, and add an attenuator right on the output of the rig. The attenuation needed will be 500/10 i.e. 17dB. There are several calculators on the internet. Using the FT817ND will allow me to declare the correct output power.

See https://www.everythingrf.com/rf-calculators/attenuator-calculator as an example.
