Lots of reading, LOTS of help from others here. This should be the last bit of questions I have the need of help with.

When doing the like reverse plate load simulation test.  I have been told, and have read, both things when doing the test, some have said to lift the plate connections off the tubes.  While others say that they need to still be connected. So what way is it?

What value of "Q" should one desire to have?

And once the amp is thought of to be set up with that desired value of "Q"

Is there a way to measure this value of "Q"?

  The tube's plate capacitance is part of the tank circuit, I think it
should be included in tests.

  Beside "Q meters," some VNAs do, I don't think mine does.  (directly)
