I agree too. It is very ambitious to attempt to cover 6 meters within 
your 160-10 meter amp. Switching and layout become a major concern. The 
simplicity of a GS-35B triode G-G amp makes it very appealing to build 
six meters as a second amp. You can do this and use one HV supply for 
both. Cost of components is small for an add-on single band amp once you 
have the HF deck and HV power supply complete.  73, Tony W4ZT
