I build a couple switchable pads that allow me to run the Ranger into the Thunderbolt or any other amp. It's also variable. Just a few resistors and a switch from an antenna switchbox. I think the T-Bolt manual has the directions.

You'll have to find a way to reduce the Ranger output to the 10-15 watt
level.  Maybe the nicest way to do that is a variable screen voltage
control, similar to what you'll find here:

but I'm sure there are other methods.


Reducing the B+ level on the plate of the 6146 is another way.

Just don't run the stock Ranger straight into the amp without dealing
with this in some way.


A "T" connector, and a dummy load works well, also.



Just tossing out some more ideas.
