Hi Rich,

his intention is a grounded grid configuration.
The cathode input impedance will be around 120 Ohm which will be best suited
by a low Q Pi-Circuit
Grid swamping would be a bad idea

Make the reactance of C-in 25-ohms on each band if u want a low swr  
input.

For AB1, a grid-swamping R is needed.
