    Using 2 uf5408 and one 100ohm 25 watt
    Solid state rectifier.
    Here are my measurements.  Only the control grid and neg50vac on driver are a few volts out of spec. Is that ok?
    Appreciate feedback. Thanks.

    Wall voltage 121.   1.6 amps total draw
    Ss rectifier (2) uf5408 (1) 100ohm25w resistor
    Pin 4 to ground - 400 - 425 volts AC. 417
    Pin 6 to ground - 400-425 volts AC. 417
    Any 6550/KT88
    Pin 1 to ground - approx .550 volts DC (depends on bias setting) .450
    Across pins 2 and 7-6.0-6.5 volts AC. 6
    Pin 3 to ground - 470 - 500 volts DC. 480
    Pin 4 to ground - 470 - 500 volts DC. 480
    Pin 5 to ground - minus 50 to minus 60 volts DC. -47
    Pin 6 to ground - minus 50 to minus 60 volts DC. -48
    Pin 8 to ground - approx .550 volts DC (depends on bias setting) .450

    Quad 1 480-505 volts DC. 488
    Quad2. 470 - 500 volts DC. 481
    Quad 3. 470 - 500 volts DC. 481
    Quad 4. 400-430 volts DC. 411

    Central 12AT7 - Pin 1 or pin 6 to ground > 130 - 160 volts DC. 142v
    Two outer 12AT7's - Pin 1 or pin 6 to ground > 255-285 volts DC. 256v
    Any 12AT7 - across the two incoming heater wires > 6.0 - 6.5 volts AC. 6
    "-50 VAC" on driver board > 48 - 55. -75
    "B+" on driver board > 400 - 430. 412
    "G" on driver board > 0 volts AC or DC. 0
