The 8560A is basically a 4CX250B with conduction cooling rather than air cooling.  Therefore, I would look at the various circuits for the 4CX250B.

The Russian GI-7b and GI-7bT tubes work well in the SB-230.  However, they do require a fan or blower.

I know some tetrodes have been successfully run in cathode fed grounded grid configuration. Is the 8560AS one that will run grounded grid without going through the trouble of creating screen supply?  I have been thinking about putting one in my SB-230 to keep the silent operation.
