  • Abstract
    The measurement of currents at the higher frequencies is made difficult by the increased inductances and capacitances inherent in measuring equipment used for low-frequency alternating currents. Here are presented the theory, construction, and performance of a wide-frequency-range ammeter with excellent characteristics in the vhf band.
