I know that the discussion about what to do with that filament can lead to a heated discussion. I remember an old ARF thread that went on for pages and pages! I don't think a consensus was ever reached. I've used a filament transformer on a Pilot, and have a couple other electrostatic sets that I need to tackle one of these days. My most pressing need for an inrush limiter is a little 3-tube AM transmittter-those filaments really take a beating at turn-on. I experimented with various light bulbs in series as well as some limiters out of a junked tv set but nothing worked perfect. Maybe I'll try what Mouser has.
