  For the implementation of ferrite-tuned cavities with perpendicular biased ferrites in the frequency range of 20 to 40 MHz, different types of ferrite garnets were evaluated in terms of their electromagnetic properties. We describe a precision measurement method applicable to small-sized ferrite samples of 1-square-inch surface and 2 mm thickness in the given frequency range. During measurement, these samples are exposed to varying magnetic bias fields of different orientations. Two different techniques for the determination of the real and the imaginary part of the permeability are required to achieve sufficiently accurate results. We present a detailed description of these methods as well as results obtained.
