BIas probe plugs on the Climax

Post by sliberty »

The picture of a Kendrick Climax shows a set of bias probe plugs on the back of the chassis. Am I correct that the "red" probe points connect to the cathodes of the power tubes, and the "black" probe point connects to chassis ground?

Also, I have seen bias descriptions say that one should use 1 ohm, 1 watt, 1% resistors. Is 1 watt really sufficient here?

Thanks,
Steve
