Thanks for the input guys
Terry - how's it going over in Lincolnshire? So I think you are saying that zener diodes are ok for low current such as the HT supply, but not for high current applications like the LT?
Mark, - I am not going to hook it up again cuz if there is a problem it might suddenly go high and burn out the valves
Mike - I am going to mess about with a breadboard, and four 1N5400 Diode's and a new regulator.
refugee - fair point but right now but I am going to make another one.
Just a quick question - the resistors I use with the regulator - do they need to be high wattage or are 1/4 watt ok?
