According to the 3-500z data sheet, this should be fine. The 200 ma seems a little low, but I guess it depends on the tubes. You should make sure that you can get rid of the heat.

I have eliminated all the bias circuit in the power supply that Drake used. At idle I show  200 mills of plate current. My question is should I add a bias circuit? I purchased a W4ZT board but wonder if I need it. Thanks and Happy Holidays to all.
