Thanks, this is basically what I did. I made a 2' twisted pair of red
& black wire and connected one end of the black wire to the output of
the ref osc (Racal 5MHz stable with oven etc) and connected the other
end of the red wire to the pin on K3 ANT2 - that gave me 9+20dB which
was just great - I did the Ref Cal and found I was only a few Hz of
the setting I done using a broadcast station of much lower freq.

radio. So its quite possible that you can pull this off. Or if all
else fails just put a terminator on your generator and run a cable out
of it (just a single wire). then you can run a wire into the rig and
you can then couple these wires more or less to vary the amount of
signal that you want/need.
