When I first got my VT-71 I did some dumb things; I managed to cause a meltdown in the ballast, destroying one of the elements. I think I ended up putting one or two resistors inside the old cage and maybe mounting a third under the chassis, but that has been a few years ago. It did work just fine. I guess I need to look at my Pilot as I don't recall what it uses exactly. I do know that both of the Pilot radios I own (and they are both huge table models) use a ballast which seems out of place.
