[Johnson] T-bolt en Valiant

Hi Folks,
I run a Central Electronics 10B w/VFO458 into my T-Bolt, works great on
AM/CW/SSB. And with a properly working 10B I still have to watch that
I don't over drive the T-Bolt. Also I have the original setup as mentioned
elsewhere on this list, got the Pacemaker, and the T-Bolt paired up, and
yes the attenuator is definitely needed there, even with 1 6146 in it you 
must
be careful not to overdrive the T-Bolt. I used for a while the Johnson
attenuator, but found I still needed to cut back, so I built a switchable
one out of 5% 2 watt carbon resistors, I have a schematic, taken from the
old ARRL SSB booklet. I like the Pacemaker for "Cruise-Ability" for
same old frequency stuff The CE 10B workes just fine. As usual YMMV.
