Make your own SMA fixed attenuators that perform decently from 50 Khz to 1.2/1.3 Ghz.
Below are the resistors ordered from DigiKey. Be sure to order extra as they easily get lost!
Use 2 same value paralleled resistors for RA and R1/R2 (See schematic and chart in video).
Use a tiny spec of instant glue to hold them together.
1/2W SMD resistors are easier to work with than 1/8W while using tweezers to set them in place.
