You and KL7RA are very fortunate! Most of us don't have a 4 kv@ 6 amp
power supply lying around the shack, nor do we have electrical drops
big enough to handle that. It still amazes me that if 6 amps are all going
at one time, and all the B-'s are tied together, and the plate IP meters
are in the B- returns, and the grid meters are from B- to chassis; that
VERY "screwy" meter readings don't take place!
