Re: Help with Shallco Ladder Attenuators

My Shallco attenuator switches in 2 resistors per step. I'll assume the 2 connections you mention are the 2 "posts" I'll reference below.

1. Connect one post to common(gnd) on both RCAs.

2. Connect the other post to signal input from 1 RCA. Which post is which depends on how the resistors were installed. Full counter clockwise position should pass no signal.

3. The center points on ALL resistor pairs must be tied together. I used a continuous piece of magnet wire. Connect this to the RCA signal output.
