Edd.B writes;
The screen grids can be connected to the control grids with a
resistor and the tubes are operated as a hi-u triode. Feed
the screen grids from the feedback winding. Do NOT use a
wirewound resistor for the grid to grid connection, use
several 2 watt composition resistors in parallel.........
While this idea will most likely work, it is kind of a
poor use of a 100 Mz capable tube.
