Let's talk about facts and not experiences or memories!
1.) Every reasonably complex electronic product designed is simulated
beforehand
2.) Simulation software is extremely accurate if the actual circuit
built (including strays etc,) is included and if the models of the parts
are correct
3.) Vacuum tubes are devices that can be modeled
4.) A parallel resonant circuit (such as the plate choke) can have
increased current flowing in it at the resonant frequency based on the
loaded Q of the circuit
5.) To simulate the plate choke properly might need several inductors
and distributed capacitors
I still believe that the loaded Q in the plate choke is not that high
and consequently the increase in current in the plate choke is not that
much and that serial resonances are what we need to be concerned with.
This forum should be about increasing knowledge rather than telling
people how they just never experienced some magical event that is too
complicated to simulate.
