Question Regarding Philco 118/3118
#1

Hi;
I'm sure that this has come up in the past but what is the wattage of the big wire wound 6500 ohm resistor running along the back of the chassis apron, mounted on a rod? It runs between B+ and the chassis, is labeled part #60, and is parallel with a 1 mf cap. Also does anyone know what the value might be of the RF choke in series with the antenna input? The one in mine has unraveled so is it necessary to replace or is it some sort of wave trap designed to block transmission from a long extinct source that can be bypassed?
Regards
Arran
