hello,

In my receiver project I have reached to point where I need to test my
IF amplifier.
It's based on one MC1350P stage.

I know it should give me approx 60dB gain. First idea that comes to my
mind is that I should feed it with very weak signal. Am I correct: if
feed it with lets say..1 microvolt, then 60dB of gain should give me 1
millivolt at the output?

If so..then how can I get such a low level signal (my Hartley
oscillator gives my 1.7 volts PTP).

Any comments?

that's what attenuator stacks are for.......... Dah.....
