Hi Joejoe and welcome to the Phorum.
I replaced the bad resistor with a 25watt adjustable that I was able to land right on 6500 ohms. With that being said, work has been so incredibly busy for me I barely have time to check in my favorite Phorum,let alone pursue my hobby. The chassis is on my bench with 3 bakelites to rebuild, an shunt resistor to install and a shadowmeter to rewind.
Wow, rodents can really do some damage. I don't envy you rewiring the chassis. Mark Oppat may have the parts you are looking for at : http://www.oldradioparts.net/
or Play things of the past: http://www.oldradioparts.com/index.html
or John Kendall at : http://www.vintage-electronics.com/rjy.htm
If you need any closeups of the chassis wiring just let me know. Hopefully I will be able to get back on my bench in Mid-January. Good luck and just ask for help when or if you need it, everyone here is very helpful.
