Philco 51-930 resistor and capacitor questions
#1

Hello Everyone,
in between other work I have been plugging along on my Philco 51-930 radio chassis I have a Questions one concerning R5 the Filament dropping resistor which looks like a old style dogbone resistor is no good So since reads 2000 ohms and schematic say 100 ohms.
I will need to calculate a high value because of our higher line voltages and far as wattage goes and type resistor should I go with?

Far as C8 that should be a safety capacitor and I am thinking C2 too.  
C12, do you think I need to put a high voltage capacitor or can just use a one yellow capacitor rated at 630 volts since this is just plain old AA6

 Here is a photo of that R5 and the Schematic 

Sincerely Richard
