If you are using Mesa branded tubes, there is no way you have the wrong color in the amp.I think the plate voltage in a Recto is around 475 volts. So at 34mA on a 6L6, you're running fairly cool (70% dissipation should be around 44mA @ 475V) To measure plate voltage, use pins 3 and 8.http://www.webervst.com/tubes/calcbias.htmThat is a bias calculator that you can use to find the safe limits for tubes.
