Hello, I have recently acquired a GM model 120A "The Hepplewhite". Did some cleaning and replacing bypass caps in the metal cans and checking the power resistor/voltage divider found it has an open in the 1st, 3rd and 4th resistors, see the attached photos. Does any one know the values of these resistors?
In the drawing of the voltage divider the 2nd is 60 ohm and the 5th is 450 ohm. One might guess by looking at the spacing of the tabs that the narrow spaced tabs would be the lower values and as the spacing gets wider the resistance would be higher, just a thought. If anyone has some suggestions for the open resistor values it would be greatly appreciated, I only have a couple 10W resistors to work with. I would like to purchase a variety of resistors to keep and at least come close to the values needed to fix this radio.
Thanks, Steve

Unable to answer your question the only info I could find was from Beitmans and a link to Nostalgia air. Sorry I could not be of more help. David     http://www.nostalgiaair.org/Resources/915/M0039915.htm

Hello Steve,
That is very funny Because I know of another guy including myself who has a radio with this chassis ,
My General motors model 160 that  is called the Georgian Style .
The values of that resistor is different among some the models  anyway my resistor was also open but one the other members gave me these values .

Hello Steve,
hopefully that helps you anyway mine came with a turntable too .
I still need to get my speaker fixed .

Hi Richard,
Thanks for the quick response, those values give me a place to start. I'm going to guess the ground connection is between the 4.8k and 59. I really like the looks of the Gregorian that you have mine is so plain looking in comparison but glad to own it non the less.
Excited to get it working again, will try to post updates.

Thanks again, Steve

Hello Steve,
Craziest thig was there was another model for sale like a year after i bought mine in the same small town
yes that is where the ground is .

Can't wait to see more on your far as update and progress !
