Thanks everyone. I checked Playthings of the Past and he didn't have a K49A listed. I've called several tube suppliers and they are looking to see if they have one. After learning it would take a 30w resistor and create a lot of heat, I've decided not to go that route. There isn't much room in this cabinet for ventilation, nor under the chassis. How would I use a diode or a cap?
