The  recent fox hunt demonstrated how much an adjustable attenuator can
help. The more common approach is several T or PI resistive attenuator
sections that can be switched in to provide enough attenuation to the fox's
signal to make finding it easier.

Here is a link to an alternative to a clunky and possibly expensive
switchable attenuator.

Here is a commercially made version that might be the simplest and cheapest
way to accomplish this. (Disclaimer: I have not dealt with this company nor
do I receive any benefits from sales of this device)
