Philco 65 paper capacitors
#1

I've never worked on a chassis design like this. What is new to me are the paper capacitors. Most of them are .1 uf with a 200 ohm resistor next to it according to the schematic. I don't see a resistor near these capacitors. A search leads me to believe the resistor is part of the capacitor unit. These capacitors have three electrical leads, the two on top and the chassis mounting leg. These provide the terminals for capacitor and resistor. I just wanted to verify my assumption is true.

A related issue is that the schematic shows chiefly 200 ohm resistors with each capacitor, but I measure 100 ohms at each. What value resistor do I replace it with?
