The dummyantenna, which uses noninductively-wound wireresistors, has a continuous rating of 100 watts andan intermittent rating of 125 watts. Power in thedummy antenna is measiued by means of arectifier-type voltmeter, using a 1N34, connectedthrough a voltage divider across the dummy essentials of the dummy antenna circuits are shown in the accompany-ing diagram, in which the power-reading volt-meter and switching details have been interesting feature is the compensating cir-.
