I'm trying to be the least destructive to the original setup of the circuit as possible. If I start cutting out resistors it will be hard to put it back to original condition.

I was under the impression that if I used terminal 1 from the Hi tap and terminal 2 to the CRT lead, it would act as a variable resistor? I'm must be missing something about how this circuit works.

What would happen if I connect terminal one to the Hi tap, terminal 3 to ground and terminal 2 to the lead to the CRT? Would that produce the effect I'm looking for, or would I short something out?
