I don't know if it happens with all of them.When I start aligning, everything goes nice and smooth. Then I start lowering the signal strength by attenuator.At the certain point, the reading on the meter goes berserk. It shows less or more, whatever. I know that the correct frequency is still there, but still it's uncomfortable, as my generator is Eico 315 and known for floating,especially at MHZ range. Is there any way to rectify that?
