A method and an apparatus for exactly and automatically adjusting the characteristics of a dielectric filter in a short time period. The characteristic parameters of a dielectric filter are measured, electric parameters of a designed equivalent circuit of the filter are calculated with the use of characteristic parameters, characteristic adjusting portions of the dielectric filter are adjusted, while at the same time, adjustment functions indicating the variation amounts of electric parameters with respect to adjusting amounts are calculated with the use of the electric parameters and the adjusting amounts which have been changed by the above adjustment. Then, in accordance with simultaneous equations involving adjustment functions, an adjusting amount is calculated with the use of a difference between a present electric parameter and a desired electric parameter, thereby effecting an adjustment which is for example 50%. By repeatedly conducting the above treatments, the characteristic parameters of the filter will be allowed to successively get closer to the desired values.
