Correction:
Should have said fig 5 on page 7. The heater regulator limits the heater
current to slightly over the normal level. This provides a slow warm-up.
It takes over a minute to reach normal heater voltage in this amp.

A recent post by Leigh, VK5KLT, suggested:
... a soft-start mechanism on
the filaments to bring them up slowly in a controlled
manner at initial switch-on ...
One method for this is found on page 8 of:
