Span Attenuator (refer to diagram 35). Two registers
(75 and 76) control the span attenuator (see Table 4-13).

1st LO Driver (refer to diagram 36). One register (72)
controls functions on the 1st LO Driver board. Another reg
ister (7E) is added for the 492P to make the PEAKING con
trol programmable (see Table 4-14).
