The only thing I didn't see is that you need to final tune on a modulated signal. Tuning up on a dead carrier will only get you close.

You really shouldn't have to drive it with more than 10 watts max in my experience. If it had driver tubes then you'd be talking like 2 watts. I drive my 4x4 tuber with 2 watt dead key and let her swing.
Maybe someone has more experience with the palomar, I had one and couldn't get it to work, everyone here helped me try though, and that's a fact!

That palomar is like a straight 6 or 8 tube isn't it?
