Phil,

I have a TW1 connected at  the output of my AL-811H.  I tune the plate 
control for maximum power, as indicated by the highest pitch, and turn the 
grid control counter-clockwise until I hear the slightest decrease.  I don't 
know if that's the best way, but I've never been told there's anything wrong 
with the way I sound, and the amplifier hasn't gone up in smoke.  Ideally, 
I'd like to have an oscillator connected to the meter so I could monitor the 
grid current, but I haven't hooked it up yet since the other method seems to 
be working.

Steve
