Thanks JTH

I can try that, although why lying in my bed yesterday with nothing better to do than thinking about the dang thing I came up with another idea.

I will take 0603 resistor, 1M, which is very small and flat, will solder two thin wire strands to it, and just put them in the sockets and put the tube in.

The power rating there is not really important.

Will try that before going to whack the plate out (plus it shows some developing cracks and may not want to come out in one piece).

Thanks again.
