Currently working on a Philco model 620. Have Riders schematic from Nostalgia Air. This BC resistor is #70 on the schematic Philco part# 33-3037 a 2 section 22ohm and 235ohm resistor. Does anyone have info on the wattage needed when replacing? Thanks, Ken

Hi Ken and Welcome to the phourm.
I would think a 25w unit should work fine.

Thanks Terry for the info. Don't think I have that high a wattage in my parts for the ohms I need. Can get it at work. Ken
