Resistor substitution 20% range?
#5

So you may not be able to find the exact value but bear in mind that back then 20 percent was standard.So you've got a fairly broad range to pick from. WELCOME TO THE PHORUM!!!

Welcome indeed, and most resistors are in fact 5% or better and only a few pennies apiece. If you have an odd value, you can order an assortment to find out which works better with your application or visit Mr. Ohm (Ohm's Las) to parallel or series what you got to what you need. Just be mindfull or lead dress if you start fooling around.

We're here.
