>>Did you match the diodes?

No, white boy, you just get the Sylvania Gold
or GE Five-Star version called 5726.
2% match, guaranteed by defunct factories!

Oh, you not like using two tubes to make bridge?
Then get 6LU8, it is QUADRUPLE diode!
Connect pin 3 to 9, negative of bridge, then
connect 1 to 7, that is positive.
AC signal go to pins 2 and 8. 6.3v heater to 4 and 5!

Hahahaha, you can also use 6AL5 as POWER rectifier!
Up to 20 mA at 200v dc out with slow warmup!
Miserable 1N34 crap cannot do this!!! hahahaha
