Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

checking voltage

ok pin 2 to ground I get 316 VDC pin 3 to gnd I get about -.44 VDC
pins 1 and 4 to gnd are EACH about -.003 VDC. Between 1 or 4 and 2
are both 305 VDC. And 1 and 4 is about 2.3 VAC.
SO! There is NO 55 VDC to be found (that is the bias voltage right??)
and accordingly NO 270 VDC (which is the B+ minus the cathode bias
55, right???) So if I have learned anything so far! I guess it is
STILL not biased right? (AND WHY NOT? I am using only 1 1.5K ohm
resistor on the CT of the filament supply bypassed with a 100 uf 100V
electrolytic with the lead with the minus symbols on it going to
ground! MAYBE i have bad resistors??????
