[Hallicrafters] Attenuators for T-bolt xciters

[Langston, Mike]

Hello,

I have a V-II that I am going to use on AM to drive a T-bolt linear. I have built up an attenuator for use between the units per the T-bolt manual schematic. It is enclosed in an alum. project box except for the 75W light bulb which is mounted on top.

First problem was finding a 75W incandescent bulb. Closest I came was a 73W halogen bulb.

Q1 - will that work?
Q2 - the bulb is not shielded. Do I need to worry about that?

Any help appreciated.
