OK Iain, that's good stuff. Have a look at this pic:

and could you explain what the figures represent and how they relate to your
explanation above.

What does the following stand for:

Ua

Keith, have a butcher's at
http://www.hamradioindia.com/HRI-THE...es/valves.html

for a quick overview of what all those abbreviations mean. Bear in mind
that I did my EE degree at a time when it wasn't trendy to talk about
bottles, so I know exactly nothing about valve amps, but it seems to be
a decent introduction. Apologies if I'm teaching granny how to suck
eggs.


Apologies for my iggerance - I'm new to this game, know bugger-all (never
claimed any different) and only learning as I go along! ;-)

You and me both!

Jeez Glenn, that's right on the money!! Many thanks!

(Could cause even more questions, I suspect though....)

Yes it does - better than anything I've seen yet. I'll give it a good going
over!

Hmmm, except in my case I *mean* it!! :-)
