Hey guys, keep in mind that most HV metering circuits aren't too accurate,
and the multiplier resistors in some designs, because they're high-value
types, also tend to drift over time and temperature.
That may cause considerable differences between otherwise "identical" units.
In my homebrew amplifier power supplies, I meter at the "cold" end of the
bleeder stack, and use a pot to calibrate the milliammeter that serves as a
voltmeter. In any case, if you do try to measure or calibrate your TT amps,
be careful. Don't make an ash of yourself.

Hi Ken,
Thanks for the waking me up. I was interpreting the darned SWR scale !!
My Titan supply is at the High psn, 2400v, needle right at the hash mark
where the red zone begins. Low psn gets 1800 volts at power-on, then
drifts to settle at about 1700.
