I'm not sure this is the right place to put this, so relocate if it needs to be somehwhere else.
Just a simple question I've wondered about for some time. I have a big box of NOS carbon resistors and wondered how age would effect them. Obviously I can check each one for value, but just curious if anyone knows if age will effect them keeping a value in tolerance after they are put in a circuit with heat, etc. Should I just chunk them?
