   Audio Attenuator

   Hi guys,   
      
   I have an old vintage HP audio osciallator which I want to use for   
   some experimentation to get more practice in electronics. Its output   
   is continually variable between 4 and 20 volts. Problem is, for some   
   experiments I have in mind, I need it to output only between 1mV and   
   10mV. The oscailator's output impedance is 600 ohms it states.   
   Can anyone suggest a simple passive attenuator I could build from   
   easily available components which would give me this much lower output   
   please?   
   thanks!
