Hey Scott, once I turn on the Ranger it does not blow the fuse. Its
just every once in a while as soon as I move the switch it never turns
on and when I check the 5 amp fuse it will be blown. I am going to
install 1 or 2 Thermistors and give that a try and see how it goes.
Thanks for the input. 73, Randy

Inrush current could be an issue. Adding a PTO thermistor is certainly
not a bad idea and probably should be done on every piece of equipment
out there with an expensive power transformer. Extends tube filament
life also.
