Thanks, Estat.
Actually it is the other way around--the bias is going UP about 10 mA on one side by the end of almost all listening sessions.
However, it was kind of a stupid premature question, & I don't know why I didn't think of this last night before I posted it (except that possibly it was because I had been drinking), but what I need to very easily do is to swap the left & right banks around & see if this follows the tubes.

Follow Ups:
If your current is increasing over time, that means your bias is dropping, which is why he asked if you were cranking it up (the bias voltage).
I thought that my question was clear: that it pertained to the amp's bias creeping UP & me adjusting the bias DOWN.

Maybe you should do what a friend of mine did and have a breathalyzer installed on each amp. In his case, he can't get past standby until he's over the legal limit. YMMV :)
Well, I don't work on my stuff (anymore), beyond setting the bias, when I've been drinking.

Nothing quite like working on high voltage supplies after several adult beverages :)
Nothing quite like getting zapped by 460VDC after several adult beverages either :)
