[Boatanchors] reduce power on ranger

I use an attenuator in a mini-box mounted right at the co-ax terminal.

There is an attenuator calculation page on the WEB (I don't have it handy)

A few years ago Phil Salas, AD5X wrote an article for QST,  his attenuator 
used Caddock resistors.

I used them in my project.  They need a lot of heat sinking for AM.

I have a Ranger and wish to reduce its RF output to 10-20 watts. This is to 
drive my commander amp (pair of 3cx800). What is the easiest way to do this?
