I have a 4cx800 that has 350volts screen voltage, -56volts grid bias and 2200volts plate voltage. The specs say it should idle at 150ma. It idles at 200ma. My question is: What is the preferred volta

Whatever it takes. The exact voltage will depend on the gm of that particular tube: I'd expect somewhere around the -60 to -68 volt range. You adjust the bias to get it right - unless you've a number

Peter is right on. Since the grid takes very little current, a poteniometer is used to adjust the bias voltage to the exact voltage. Usually you will have a higher negative voltage that is tapped by

/ In Class AB1 gtid-driven service, the screen and/or the grid potential can be used to set ZSAC. To take full advantage of the tube's emissive ability, the screen needs to operated at max rated V.

I'd put a 20-25 ohm 20 watt non inductive, non bypassed resistor in series with the cathode. It'll lower your idle current and provide neg. feedback. Mark WB8JKR -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.
