Merry Christmas!
I'm working on a AL-1500. I noticed that the is only one 1.5 Ohm resistor in 
the plate metering circuit. The schematic calls for two 1.5 Ohm resistors (R3 
and R4).

The plate current seems just a bit high. With 1500 watts out, plate current is 
about 975 ma @ 2900 volts. I really believe the amp is a bit more efficient 
than this.  

Ideas?
Thanks
