The voltage across the 180 Ohm cathode resistor (actually measures 193 Ohms) is 25 Volts.
I put in the new pair of GE 7581A/KT66 valves (and did the same measurements: HT before smoothing Choke is 343 V and after the choke is 338 V and the voltage across the cathode resistor (measured valve 193 Ohms) is also 25 V.
I hope that this is if interest. Would you please explain the significance of these results, regards, Paul.
