Thanks to Old Coot's suggestion for a temporary use of a 6BG6, I finally got some good brightness, and life!!!
Picture was dying quickly at first, then I remembered the ion trap wasn't positioned properly...
Here's what I got after only 15-30 seconds, didn't want to leave it running too long with the wrong tube in place... Will now order a new tube, and change out that 1b3 2.7 ohm resistor...
Thanks to all your good help, I'm back in business!
I almost gave up...thanks again for all the help!!!!

PS... There is a 6H6 in the socket of what says:" 6AE5 or 6H6"
Wonder if I should I use a 6AE5 instead?
