Oh it was just seconds ago when I understood what did you mean by the 
floating anode voltage. Right, that should happen, if one of cathodes is 
grounded, then literally any leakage current will cause 130Vish voltage on 
the anode to appear. However, this would mean that MMBTA92 have some 
serious leakage current issues if at Uce = 60V it leaks enough to cause 
visible glow.
However, that still makes me wonder why do they leak only when other tube 
is conducting. There is a cathode grounded at all times and there is no 
voltage drop across the tube when no tube is conducting (probe internal 
resistance causes the voltage to be not floating, that's why on the graphs 
it looks like it's about 0V during dead time).
