A variable termination load switch (102) is provided to enable transmission and group delay measurements to be made of a device under test (DUT) (103) using only one port of a vector network analyzer (VNA) (100). The variable termination load switch (102) selectively provides an open or a short based upon a signal provided to its control input (106). The variable termination load switch (102) has a load port (113) for connecting to one port of the DUT and the VNA port is connected to another port of the DUT during testing. The variable termination load switch (102) includes a diode (143) connected by a resistor (149) to the control input (106). The diode (143) has connected parallel transistors (141, 142) and a series transistor (140) to provide a load impedance matching the DUT impedance when the load is functioning either as a short or an open. Isolation capacitors (145) and (146) reduce the affect of AC signals from the control input (106).
