I'm not sure how to respond to my first thread. Sorry if this is a duplicate.  
I have been trying to find the cause of my amplifier's output power falling 
off. Last night I checked it by transmitting a 400 watt CW signal into dummy 
load. After 1 minute output dropped by about 50 watts. At higher wattages the 
loss is more pronounced, at 600 watts it may drop to 400 over a minute time. 
Now when I apply drive the filament voltage INCREASES. It always used to 
decrease under load.  That might be a clue, I don't know.
Thanks for all the help on this.
