I don't remember exactly how much if any bias voltage was put on the
cathode in a grounded grid amp. I do remember on 811s, the cathode was
actually the filament, so they were fed filament voltage (around 5 v as
I recall, through a double wound rf choke, I forget what those were
called. I just don't remember how the cathode was biased or if it was.
