- good The 8877 is designed to have low grid-interception, so the grid current can be very small compared to a 3-500z . However, with any tube, if you use lignt loading, grid current increases. - Why

- To: <amps@contesting.com> Great. That's the way they work Bill. I hope you have a fast electronic overload system that samples grid current. You can trash the grid pretty fast if the load even momen

- Ive noticed similar indications with 2 and 3 tube 3CX800 amps and also my old NCL-2000 6M tetrode amp (screen current sensitivity). It may have something to do with the Zp being quite low with lower
