Too bad. The discreetness (is that a word?) of the suppressor in the EL34 allows various options in triode:wire to the cathode, normally,
wire to the plate (in my case so far, directly),
wire to the screen, which is wired to the plate, through any of several resistor/diode/zener combinations. This is an avenue of considerable experimentation, which I am just now undertaking on an EL34 dedicated Machine, to be attached to the tail of a similarly dedicated Mœbius. The hard supressor connection is a disappointment, but has not proven to be a killing disadvantage in beam tubes like the 6V6, so there we go. Onward.
Howzit, Eli?
