€  My position is that it is not very logical to try and simulate the 
highly complex cathode-Z of a tube if you have one in-hand.

€  It gets you in the ballpark.  Making L and C2 adjustable is not a bad 
idea if one is using a solid-state output radio to drive the amp.  . With 
a TS-830S, it does not matter.
