Iain, your memory fails you. It was me that pointed out the error on
the diagram - and I did it quite nicely, with a joke. It was then me
that got "peppered with buckshot" for having the effrontery to point
out an error on a circuit that had been submitted for exactly that
purpose - peer review. (snip and paste)

OK, I got irritated by the flak, and went on to describe how the
circuit was going to work in practice (very poorly in this case). But
there - you go. I have had circuits peer reviewed on the past, and
pulled to pieces. That is why you do it.

Hello Don,

It may well me that my news server did not download all the messages to
that particular thread, because I saw no evaluation of the circuit, or
suggestions
of improvements (with reasons why they would be improvements)

I had failed to appreciate that where valves
are concerned, criticism is not an option - lavish praise is all that
is allowed.

:-) That's not really fair Don. I am sure there is no-one amongst us who
does not appreciate help, I know I certainly do, and I have been building
amps for a very long time. To build a valve amp is a pretty simple task.
To build a good valve amp is quite a serious undertaking.

Cordially,

Iain
