I believe I mention this in my Re-Building page on my site for Bakelite Blocks.
Quote:"... Some of the Philco condensers also included a resistor (see chart). The original resistor is a small hank of light gauge resistance wire, in the required amount, wrapped inside a small kraft-paper wrapping. I assume from inspecting the size of the wire, that these resistors are rated at about a half-watt. Substituting a new carbon or carbon film half-watt part will work just fine."
