Hi, and thanks for the help.
The 62milliamp was generated by the Weber calculator I was using.  I measured the milliamps on my power tubes and they are 52 which I thought was high but then not really understanding what I'm doing I was unsure which way I should go.  The spec on the build I'm doing calls for a 270 ohm 10 watt resister but I couldn't find one so I went with the 250 ohm.  I could probably use a couple of resisters in series to get into the range which would lower the current down into the mid range.
Thanks for the shove in the right direction.

the only thing that was stopping me from getting the proper value or range of values for the resistors is my own stupidity. I looked around several months ago and couldn't find the right value so ordered one I could get. Considering the amount of stress this has put me through all for a 69 cent part, I'm beginning to think I need to seek professional help.
I have checked the voltage across the cat. resistor and am certain of the 32.5v value.

The main issue I think is my old silvertone 6L6gc's. They test very strong so I thought they would be a good choice while I await the JJ's coming wednesday, however, when I test the current on pin three I get 51 mV on one and 63 on the other. I'm thinking they are not well matched (they came out of an old Silvertone 1484 that I'm in the process of rebuilding and since they tested so well I thought I'd pop them in and use them. 

My son is wanting to use this amp when he play in a blues club on thursday and he is pushing for more volume out of the amp.  Compared to my 40 Watt pignose this amp is very quiet and it would be a stretch to play over drums with this amp which suprised us both since it has 2 6V6 power tubes.

Anyway, thanks for your input and concern about my sanity.
Dave

okay, don't get me started on my parents!
hee, hee!
I am not sure what you mean in regards to the JJ's and my need for 10 Watt resistors! I have ordered some 270 ohm and 300 ohm 10 watters from Mouser and should see them Thursday if all goes well. If you could enlighten me I would be grateful!
Thanks,
Dave

6mA is getting pretty far apart, not a deal breaker with a 6L6GC, but it would be be huge for a 6V6GT or EL84.  These tubes are being biased with the same resistor, so you are talking about one tube burning at nearly10% more dissipation. That's fine if the hotter tube isn't running above 80% dissipation, but rough on the tube if it's not.

As for the tubes testing good...that's a matter of which tube tester and how well it's been calibrated and what that particular manufacturer considered "good."

Wait for the JJ's...and try them with the stock 270 first. 

Also what preamp tubes are you using, the problem may be a preamp tube choking signal off early.

8-ohm speaker, correct?

got the tubes and resistors and have done the following:
installed 270 ohm cat resister with 22mf 63V cap
installed JJ 6L6 power tubes
replaced the 22mf 40v cap bypassing the 820 resistor on pin 8 of 12AY7 with 2mf 50v cap
replaced the 22mf 40v cap bypassing the 1K5 resistor on pin 3 of 12AX7 with 2mf 50v cap

amp has more bite to it by far and I think when the speaker gets broken in more it will sound fantastic

the tubes are still running at 52 mA each, now balanced but still a little hot.  I might drop in a 300 ohm 10 W cat resistor to see what happens but my son is playing it tonight for the first time!
