I've gotten back to this model 91 and am recapping. Bakelite block cap#9 ( 6287-C ) is a 0.15uF with a 200 ohm resistor. (The resistor and capacitor are wired in parallel.) Here's a link to Ron's annotated schematic:

So I got the resistor out and could use it but the lead is very fragile (I think I lost some of the wire strands in the process of removal) and its probably better to replace it. I'm not sure what wattage would be used, but it looks like a wirewound resistor. Does anyone know if a 2 watt 220 ohm resistor would work OK in the circuit? Thanks!

Cheers,
Bob
