[Test-Equipment] Same old dumb question my way:

Guys I will remeasure these tomorrow.  i used one of those little
Chinese microprocessor controlled L/C meters.  I have an older
Sencore meter which I should have used.  I will also put my Rig Expert
analyzer on it and see what it says.

Regardless of what I get, the baby that was tossed out with the
bath water was the question when loading an old rig prior to putting
it on the antenna, I could not see any difference between tuning up
on the light bulb or tuning up on the Ohmite cluster?  This was
especially true when I inserted a little LDG box in the train.  Dipping
the plate & peaking the grid felt identical either way.  Once switched
over, there was no need to change those settings.
