Choke input power supply question...

A quick look at the SEX manual shows it, too, has no CT on the transformer. 

I don't know what I was thinking.

It sounds like what  you were describing is a technique  using an HV CT power trannie, with a full wave bridge, which would then  deliver 2X the DC voltage of teh standard 2 rectifier CT design, but at the cost of being able to deliver only half of the output current.  This can use four SS rectifiers, or a tube rectifier for the + and two SS rectifiers (in a hybrid bridge) for the - side)    The CT can then be used to deliver a half-B+ DC voltage, or can be left unconnected.

Been there, done that when a higher than "normal" B+ voltage was required...
