1930 Philco 20B Cathedrals
#13

Thanks Terry.  Icon_thumbup

I'm working on the bakelite blocks. I've done many of these, and it's going smoothly. While working, I'm also checking resistors. I had to disconnect one end of the lower of the 2 dark gray dog bone resistors in this pic in order to flip the block over. It checked out at 800K, and should be 500K, so it needs to be replaced. My question is, what wattage is it? My experience tells me a 1W will replace it, but I wanted to confirm. Thanks.
