The line adjust pot may not give you enough range. I think you will still need a series resistor. I'd start with 50 ohms, and measure what you get. If you're low, change to 22 ohms, if high, try 100 ohms. Somewhere in there you will come to the sweet spot.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
