Re: Here is schematic for 26 I'm building.

Hi!

nice simple design. What is the input level you expect the 26's grid will see ? Nominal CD level would drive the grid positive already.

If you stick with this op point, may I suggest to give 'filament bias' a try ? Connect the filament supply to one filament pin and the other filament pin to ground through a 1.5 Ohm resistor. This will give you the same grid bias without the need to resort to a battery. However in this arrangement the filament supply must be very quiet. I'd recommend a cutrrent source, or better yet a choke. Make it LCL, if you have the iron available.

Best regars
