Yet another post on the Taylor 45C but I have scoured everywhere for information

My Taylor 45C seems to work well but I cannot be sure of the grid volt calibration which is of fundamental importance to obtaining accurate mutual conductance readings.

So I kindly ask other owners of this instrument to connect their 'scope to the G1 and K sockets of a valve holder and post a reply. It will be very useful to see if my 45C is similar to others.

This is what I get with grid volts set to 10V (and I've also got results for 1V, 5V and 15V).

All the relevant resistors and power supply in my 45C are to Taylor specification.
