Hi, Don
  Could you tell me how much power 
 to drive this amplifier? how much 
power output?your 4CX250B GG configation are same as I mentioned(screen as grid and the tied the grid and cathode together)?
  Thanks!

In the sixties, I had a copy of a 30L-1 that used four 4cx250Bs in GG.

If I recall correctly, the first grids were grounded through 5 watt  
carbon 100 ohm resistors.  Otherwise you will burn out the grid at  
first rf.
