Hi Arran, it sure sounds like you know your business. That is what caught my attention too, didn't make sense that different resistors would be overloaded by simply removing different tubes. I figured there had to be a common denominator somewhere. A few things came up this week so hopefully I can continue this weekend with plugging in the field coil and move on to fine tuning. Hopefully thats the answer.
