**  A grid-terminator R either soaks up the power or it don't.  If it 
doesn't soak, it's croaked.  
-  If the grid-terminator is present and intact it presents the design 
impedance at the grid over the full range of input power.  If the grid 
draws current, a competent operator knows to either reduce the power-out 
limit on the exciter -  or to increase the DC grid bias potential and 
increase screen potential to restore the recommended ZSAC..

** What did you have in mind regarding the terminating R not being able 
to absorb power, Ian?
