Indeed, usually *quite* well marked, all I've used. Many with fused  
BNC connectors.  There's another accessory I've used with unfused lab  
gear, and that's a fused BNC adaptor.  It's about the same size as a  
BNC inline terminator or attenuator, but has a replaceable picofuse.   
This would be a good investment for the Pro III owner that uses an  
separate RX antenna.

I *may* have one here hidden in a pile, most likely it's either HP or  
Bird.  I'll try to find a vendor if anyone is interested.  Even if  
they're not, I'll pass the info to Adam.
