Philco 49-901 restoration
#11

Probably right after the AC switch. I'll add a fuse there too. It doesn't really matter though as long as it's somewhere in the series filament string

It's there to reduce surge current on startup and pretty much stays a constant temperature while the radio is on. You couldn't use it control a fan. I'll use an Ametherm SL12-22101 or equivalent. It's about 220 ohms at room temperature and drops to around 8 ohms with half an amp running through it.
