funny you mention the fluke 77 series .

what I and many other are saying is that the clamp meter you have is not 10m impedance, and that is quite important when it comes to tube stuff, there is a 90% chance that your voltage measurements are being skewed because of this.
$12.50 is a good investment to double check that you are being told correct voltage info with a meter KNOWN to be 10m, that both I and jr_tech have used, and I can say for a fact it gives readings on par with the Fluke.
