If my RF power meter is reading -13dbm when there's a 20dB attenuator in
line, what is the true power level, please?
I've got an exhaustive App Note from Rhode & Schwartz which claims to
cover everything about decibels, but, er, doesn't.
CD.
That would be -13 + 20 = +7dBm, provided that impedances
are matched everywhere.
