I'm thinking of putting a PIC inside my amp and having it run a LCD display
out front. I've seen it done, but am curious about

The types of interference I'd end up with. I have my enclosure separated PS
on left side and RF on right, but I bet when its running

At a good clip, there will be lots of noise. I'm guessing lots of rfi
filtering in a shielded box and maybe shielded ribbon out to the

Front panel? Any others do similar? Looking to monitor plate and grid
volts/current perhaps as a start..

 

Later on I'd use it to hold off for heater warmup and such..

Perhaps the Tetrode board(g3sek)  is easy to interface to a pic/lcd?
