That's a good point Rich. In any case, a minor adjustment to the primary
will bring the filament right to where you want it. I'm a firm believer in
step start for filaments on expensive tubes as well as high voltage
supplies. Thanks!

necessary to be able to adjust the filament V more than +/- 8%. A
rheostat does the job nicely.

An easy solution would be to obtain one of the small variable
transformers (I have a couple I bought on Ebay) and put it in the
filament transformer primary so you can make the necessary minor
adjustment. 73, Tony W4ZT
