Ok got fed up being nervous and decided to subscribe to the HCS school. Powered the set up fully via the variac upto 240v.

The sets hums loud very loud.
Then I heard this strange oscillation a high pitch squiggle. No lights on the EY86 nothing on screen all other valves lit.

That hum puts the fear of god in me its a real deep Van Helsing hum, if you know what i mean.

P.S. I can tell you the adrenaline is running, If I still smoked I would be drawing away by now
