balancing the plate volts and plate current

Got to be a better way than I am trying to do it, because I am shooting at a moving target. Trying to get the right plate voltage (105 vdc) and the right plate current(6mA) by adjusting the cathode resistance and the plate load resistance on the 26 tubes in the 26/26/845 amp I am bread boarding. Problem is if you change one it changes the other; I can get either one right but then the other one is off. Anyone got any tricks for doing this other than trial and error, or am I doomed to trying different combos and hoping to get close?
