Hmmm......yes, I see that now. A Shadow Meter is normally in series with the IF and RF tube's B+ line, straight DC current and pre-disposed my brain to think in terms of DC current. Icon_redface

I don't think it's acting like an auto-former though....

I see that as a tapped audio choke, tapping off part of the full AC component and the reduced audio currents then get rectified by the diode. The DC thus generated would be a steady DC, since this meter is supposed to be used with an RF gen with audio modulation on (steady tone on output tube). Think the way it's drawn threw me at first.
