Aw, just hook them together, no pad, no matching and let them live. The quarter
wave of coax has a 20% bandwidth, and certainly would do the match just fine.
The higher impedance load of the tube grid circuit (which may be tuned for
frequency AND impedance match) will get really good power with no
adjustments and just a little twiddle of the grid matching and tuning will raise the
drive to the tube.
Tune that grid for maximum output from the driver. Likely you will find the tuning
double humped because when its optimized for drive its hitting the tube too
hard.
