Huh, I thought they pulled waveforms from there as well. It's been a while since I've been inside my Wingate, and I don't have it near me to play with it since I moved or I'd try it myself. Seems to me it would change the operating point of the output tube by a little bit, but probably not much. It would have the effect of driving the stage harder, since lowering the cathode voltage to ground would turn it 'on' more. But since the same thing can be achieved by the drive pot mod I already did (which accomplished nothing), I suspect the result will not be more HV output. Curiously though, I noticed that the 5 is not as prone to getting drive lines as the other chassis are. All these things are what leads me to believe that the transformer itself it what they changed, since it all leads back to that one part of the circuit.
