The dreaded load line chart. I have yet to get my head around what one of those is trying to tell me.

The wattage that you will get, distortions, the voltage that you need for driving them to get that power, and a possible A2 or AB2 operation if you will enter there (positive control grid), what driver tube is the best to do the work. Just a ruler and pencil If you will not find the tube that you are looking for in that simulator:)
