yesterday I couldn't even spell electric inganeer and now I are one

I wish. Ok, so I am giving the books another hit and trying to build a load line for how the 45 is set up for the 26 deuce amp the way it is right now. Using Morgan Jones for instruction. So of course I run into trouble right of the bat with calculating the mA value because there is no anode load resistor as such. Is the opt then considered the load resistor? I have the 125ese I am using set up for a primary of 5k into 8 ohms. B+ is 250 vdc. The voltage drop across the opt is 5 vdc, and the measured resistance at the primaries is 100 ohms for a mA of 50. This plots up as a pretty steep load line, but obviously this is just the beginning of working on that.
Before I start trying to get all this the way it should be, am I on the right track, or have I already screwed up?
