Hey, I never thought of this.  You can run 1/2 the tube at a time!  This actually puts it within the limits of the VacuTrace.  I can test each side separately.

..and while you do so you might discover one of the mysteries of the 6C33C – the tube that is running with both cathodes has each cathode loosing it’s emission with different tempo and each half is loosing it’s transconductance with different pace. It does not necessary has any influence to sound but it says prefabs about the bad quality production of Russian tubes – when each cathode has a different amount of the cockroaches legs on it. BTW, the 6C33C with one cathode it is how it being used in the Super Melquiades HF and MF channels.
