Somewhere above I was wondering why my filament circuit halves seemed to be connected to each other AND to ground. Those in the know were polite and made no mockery of the noob- thanks!

Found that: a) The 6A7 socket has a hidden little tab that connects filament (pin 7) to the mounting rivet- and ground.
And b): Of course the transformer secondary for the filaments connects the two sides together with almost zero resistance...duh.

Remember, I'm a MECHANICAL engineer... they did tell me not to stick my fingers inside the electronics boxes...

Achtung! Alles Lookenspeepers!
Das computermaschine ist nicht für gefingerpoken und mittengrabben. Ist easy schnappen der springenwerk, blowenfusen und poppencorken mit spitzensparken. Ist nicht für gewerken bei das dummkopfen. Das rubbernecken sightseeren keepen das cottenpickenen hans in das pockets muss; relaxen und watchen das blinkenlichten.
