[Boatanchors] Dropping Resistor Question

I'm solid stating my Johnson Valiant as I work on it.

For the 5V4,  my Tung-Sol data sheet shows 23V drop @ 175 ma per plate.

I see some one web site using 2x175 mA for the dropping resistor current.

As I see it even though both plates will be used,  it will be only one side
at a time so the current through the single dropping resistor should be 175
mA.

Comments?
