Hello All,

I am testing a new type of antenna by sending a signal through it and receiving said signal with a spectrum analyzer. Nothing too exciting.

Anyway, this antenna is attached to the generator AND the analyzer with a 50 ohm coax. The antenna itself is (basically) a 100 ohm resistor (don't ask). Shouldn't the signal I pick up, if broadcasting at 1 mV, be 333 mV? I'm only reading 250. Why?!
