silly me .... that works with a B+ supply, but probably not with a filament
xmfr. Sorry ....

Subject: Re: [Amps] Soft Start
Why not just put the soft start relay coil across the primary. Since there
will be a big voltage drop across the step start resistors - leaving very
low voltage across the transformer primary until the filters charge - the
relay will be timed "naturally". This will also protect against an open step
start resistor since the relay won't ever fire in that case.

Subject: [Amps] Soft Start
OK guys I made the subject soft start , but that about the only thing
right this time. The resistor should be big enough , 50ohms 100w. It
all worked one part at a time but when I hooked it all up together my 60
main power relay chatters , I am going to rewire and not run the coil
supply for the 60 amp through all the relays. I have the 120- control
voltage daisy changed the coils and I think I am getting VD. That aint
good.
I am able to adjust the delay as required from .15 sec to 180 with the
Dayton relays so ignore my original statement about 10sec delay on HV, I
will adjust it.
More when I know more.
