I am going to school for electronic technology communications I have currently just started my first electronics communication class at matc in milwaukee wisconsin in our 1st lab we were to get familiar with using are test equiptment one being the agilent 33220a waveform generator we were suppose to set mem 1 at a freq of 100 khz no modulation with a output of 24 dBm but we could only set it to 23.98 dBm our instructor wants to know why we cant set it to 24 dB I went on line and got the data sheet for the agilent 33220a but the only thing i could see in there (and i am not sure was amplitude flatness at < 100 khz it is .1dB but 23.98dBm is only .02 dB less than 24 dBm so i do not think this is the answer can any one help me
