Hi Tom,
To cook the tubes for de-gassing, normally I left them on stby with a low
mains voltage ( maybe 180 to 200v using a variable mains transformer) for
several hours.
But I think you mean to have the amp at key-down at 300-400w dissipation at
lower anode voltage. It could be done also, at low mains + - 200v?
I am looking for an easy way to do it.

No, I mean cook.
The context of my post was "cooking" the tube anodes to de-gas
the tubes by running the tubes at 300-400 watts dissipation for
several hours.
You would NOT want to do that even for 15 minutes with a 922
cooling system blowing on the tubes.
