I'll keep that in mind Terry.
I took a few pics of the resistor. One of the things that had me concerned was the wire sticking out near the terminal closest to the chassis. I used a magnifier and a bright light and it looks like excess lead after wrapping around the terminal. Also under the bright light, it doesn't look that bad after all considering the radio is nearly 80 years old.
Yeah, when getting familiar with the chassis and the schematic I use small pieces of masking tape to ID the components. It seems to be the only way for me to keep track of what's what! Aids me in tracing out the schematic too.
