"I just received a few Ohmite thick film power resistors for an attenuator I'm making, rated 20 watts. They are 15mm x 10mm x 3mm. Obviously they have to be heat-sunk (heat-sinked?) if they are going to dissipate that much power."
FYI - Both Ohmite and Caddock make versions of these resistors that have screw holes for mounting. The lower power parts (15-20 watts) are pretty good thru 2-meters. However, the higher power versions (especially the 100-watt versions) can start to look bad at 50 MHz due to the large package capacitance-to-ground.
