Yes, George!  I am thinking about selling some of the excess power back to
my local electric utility.

Seroiusly, the plate current meter indicates only the average current.  I
would think my peak current is significantly higher than 320 mA.

I should probably provide a DC carrier measurement for comparison and
efficiency measurement.  I'll do this tonight.

Thanks for responding.
