Bias circuit for fixed bias

I use the PEC (which I believe were mentioned earlier).

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.


And FWIW, I have attached the fixed bias circuit I use. Stable and no issues. (Based on suggestions from Jack Elliano at Electra-Print.)

I do in my personal designs, however the advice to add R2 was a good one and I am doing that in my few designs intended for commercial use.

As I mentioned earlier the RV4LAYSA pots are long term reliable, I use PEC or Ohmite bard. (Digikey stocks these as you already know)

Since you don't need to supply any grid current at all 50K should be fine.
