Hi,
Just going to get started on a Model 90 chassis and see all of these cool looking cast end dogbone resistors but most of them way out of spec. Normally later radios will get new carbon comp resistors to replace the old like ones. Here I don't know what to do. New ceramic resistors would look pretty sad compared with these dogbones, but they've mostly drifted way off. I'm really not into the work of imbedding new ones into a cast. Maybe I should just put in the modern resistors and not worry about it?
