I don't have a Loran receiver, and I

high quality attenuator). This is the same as saying that the VSWR
(Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) is close to 1. A 40 dB return loss
corresponds to a VSWR of 1.02. If an RF filter doesn't see a low VSWR
load, it may not produce the desired filtering behavior.

survey in conjunction with the
25 MHz transmitter for safety purposes? You may have a high RF field in
that area, and if the V/m is too great you will have many difficulties.

. As I suggested
earlier, try lowering the input level by 5 or 10 dB and see if the
harmonics go down linearly.

Digi-key has ZNI devices as surface mount parts. Sparse data said
nothing about a platinum curve.
I'm curious because my former employer did very well selling platinum
RTD sensors, usually 100 ohms at the triple point.

stuff.
There are environments where time sync with Wi-Fi hasn't got a chance.
Jim Lux was looking for a COTS solution to time sync, and this might
work in a controlled environment.
Don't even think about consumer radio clocks that sync from unknown
Wi-Fi environments.

more about its capabilities.

Wonder if these cases could be used on social media to create enough
fear that there would be a market for AC crowbars capable of blowing
line/pole transformer HV fuses? There's a few hits with Google, mostly
for DC crowbars. Too bad relays are so slow.
