RE: Good pick-up Jeff.

Lew,

Thanks for the TC comment. I just read on Time Constant. Here is what I came up with:

Fc = 1 / (2*pi*R*C)

I want to target an Fc of roughly 2-4hz.

My C is already determined by my existing caps which are 50uF. So, if I pick an R value of 1000 ohms, this gives me an Fc = 3.18 hz. This will drop the B+ going to the driver, but I think that will be OK because I will reduce the existing 22K Plate Resistor that drops the Plate Voltage to 133V. I can work on that offline.

let me know if this sounds correct.

Thanks,
Pat
