Looking for BIG power resistors
I'm in the process of restoring a WWII vintage transmitter.
So far I've been able to use all of the original parts but some
of the bleeder resistors in the HV supply are bad. Hoping
someone has these in their junkbox;
25K ohm 80 watt; these are 11.5" long and 1.125" in diameter,
ceramic with cartridge type ends. Made by Groves Corp (bit this isn't
important). Need at least two of these.
The other resistor is really one of those old style ceramic floor
heater elements. It has wire wound on a ceramic cone and
uses a standard light bulb base. 220 volts, 660 watts.
This monster is put in series with the primary of the plate
transformer for "low power tuning". Chuckle...
