[Heathkit] AT-1 Dummy load

[Bob Macklin]

Make a real dummy load. Buy a ceramic light socket and a 1 gallon paint can. Put the socket in the paint can and connect a piece of coax to it. Punch some holes in the lid of the can so you can see the light and have some ventilation.

If you want to be serious about playing with old transmitters buy a Heath Cantenna off eBay!

  Use a light blub as we did years ago.  The AT-1 can take it.  60 watt is fine.  No need to buy a dummy load.
