Hi All,

I'm nearing completion of "the conversion from Hell", removing the 
3CV1500 from an Alpha 70V, and installing a 3CX1200Z7.  I need to 
contact the anode of this tube, which won't accept the usual clip 
sort of arrangement.

I'm very tempted to drill and tap a little hole on the periphery of 
the anode cooler, and bolt the wire on.  I can put it in a position 
which minimizes the distance from the RFC/blocking cap junction to 
the anode.

Can anybody tell me why I shouldn't do this?

John, Rich, Tom, Ian???
