Thought I'd ask the experts. This is a Philco 38-12CI.  The 250 ohm resistor comes out to 261 ohms. I'm not sure what the tolerance of this resistor is. Can anyone advise, should I leave it or replace it?

Thanks.

It's less than ten percent over. It's OK.

Maybe it's time to replace the 3 ball bearings. I've done it on a few sets to lessen the roughness in the tuning.Radioroslyn — 10:04 PM
