Candohm replacement
#1

Am working on a 42-322 (my first restoration, unfortunately I didn't realize this had the rubber wire issue until after I bought it and started reading this phorum, but what the heck...).  The candohm filament resistor (#46 in schmatic) is faulty although it seems to have failed in an unusual way.  The 40 ohm section reads 250 ohms while the 80 ohm section reads 84.  Thought these usually failed open or shorted to chassis.  Anyway, my plan is to drill out the candohm and replace with a terminal strip and some 5 watt wire wound power resistors.  Does that sound right to you folks or is there another approach that works better?
Thanks for the help!
Bob
