My FT101 has a 1816? bulb in the back as a "fuse" for the front end.
Obviously a 130V bulb gives me low receive but a no.47 gives me better receive than the 1816....Is the receiver aligned to this bulb?
Anyone ever played with different ma and voltages or is it as I said, aligned to the 1816?

'Radio Tech' - a forum member here - has made quite a few YouTube videos on the FT-101. He has quite a bit of experience with these radios. You may want to PM him; or he may see this thread and answer you here.
